BIGGEST RIMS??
Thursday, April 13, 2006 12:44 PM
alright right now i got 17" rims on 205/40/17 tires. my car isnt lowered because if i lower it my kit will just scrap and crack. but my wheel wel is pretty big still. i want to know if i could fill it up but putting bigger rims or thicker tires????

ppl always talk @!#$ about j-bodys, but why is it when i drive by all they seem to do is "kplookn"

for 17" rims your tire should be 225/45/17 or 215/45/17, the tires that u got are way too small.


Ill make a sig someday

bigger rims wont fill up the wheel well much better. if you get the correct size tire, then its only actually a little bigger. the only way to get the well filled up best is to lower it. even if its just a small 1.2 in drop like the tein h-techs, it will look much better.
