I need to know the biggest size tire that can go on 17x7 enkies. My celica is lowered 1.5 inches (correctly). I don't want to roll the fenders or anything or any scrubbing.
I'd appreciate any help anyone can give me. FYI i'm on my phone and it is currently my only way of 6gc right now so please don't tell me to search because it wont pull anything up on my phone. I have tried many times. -Colby --------------------  |

Pros
It fills the wheel wells better. You get better ride quality. The car sits higher off the ground with less wheel gap. It looks better. Your wheels sit more flush with the body of the car. Better traction Cons You might need to roll the rear fenders or cut the rear inner lip of the fender to avoid rubbing. Personally I will never go back to low profile tires.
