For Christmas my parents are getting me a wheel and tire package (as long as I pay for tires). I've decided on these wheels with these tires.
I have a few questions for you guys if you don't mind answering them: 1. Is this offset going to look ok? If not, what size spacers will I need? 2. I want a rim that looks good, but improves handling. Do you think this is a good rim, or should I look at something else? 3. I plan on lowering the car in the spring when I put on the wheels and tires and I know that wide 18s might rub. There shouldn't be any clearance issuses on these 17s, right? 4. This is my first set of aftermarket rims. My dad says the tires will wear faster on 17s than my 14 inch stockers. Is this True? If so, how? If you have anymore info, please let me know. Thanks, Alex Cutrara This post has been edited by Cutrara: Dec 12, 2005 - 5:54 PM -------------------- |
