I have 17" enkie rims but they are somewhat more inside the fender wall. Do you know what is a good width of the rims like 7.5 or 8 or 8.5 ? But I don't want it to stick out beyond the fender, I just want it as close to the fender without leveling with the fender.

That's what I have with a 19" rim and Toyo T1-S 245/35/zr19 tires and I love the look



just out of curiosity, how do you like the ride?


On the highway I love it, In the city it's OK, the first time I drove it after taking off my 17's, the way home was on a bumpy road and all I could think was "what did I do???" on rough roads the ride is terrible, BUT tollerable for the look and grip....

....I think it was just a shock since in one day in the morning I dropped it off with a freind of mine with stock suspension and 17's with 215/45/17 tires and picked it up with tein s-tech's, koni struts, and 19's with 35 series tire...

now I'm used to it biggrin.gif
