Happy birthday. If you want the "look" of a big tires in back, get some big rims to put them on so that you will be safe.

If you want the "look" of a big tires in back, get some big rims to put them on so that you will be safe. k' im trying to trade mi rims for a 17x8.5 that is too wide? or i should get 8" wide?  if i cannot trade them i will get some spacers like 8mm for the rear and 5mm in the front that's gonna make them see a litle more wider Thanks im going to make a party!! lol if someone lives in el paso they are welcome

If you're desperate for wide rims, buy yourself a car which is designed to use them.
