I really wanted to know what is the best offset, which I know there are threads that are about that. I may have to research those, but I wanted rims that look like these Enkei rims http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-Enkei-Sc...sQ5fAccessories
However, I wanted 17x8's and in silver color and NOT universal looking, meaning I want exactly 5 bolts/pattern. Any recommendations, some with a good if not perfect offset? My friend had some BBS on his 2nd gen eclipse before it got killed by a honda (an idiot driver), and his tires were very wide and the wheels were flush and perfect on his. 17x7 just seems too small of a tire to me, doesn't give that aggressive look.

Yeah, I figured about 8mm or so, I'll play with it though to see what the best fit will be. Hey, even if there was some curb rash, it's all fixable. My lil 14s are getting annoying and, I do like how my stockies look, but I wish they were bigger. Plus, with having yours possibly, that'll give me time to refurbish my old ones to give to the needy. I definitely won't be able to use them again, I'm working on getting some bigger rims, cuz I'm trying to good ole bigger and better brake systems and trying to get everything fitting correctly, yet can't test them driving yet, cuz my rims are way too small to clear the calipers/rotors haha.

Yeah I will let you know then. I am just debating if and when I am going to buy the new rims and tires. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
