Hello, im just wonder if any could tell me the tire size needed to go to 17 inch rims. my stock tires are 195/60/15. i was thinking maybe 205 45 17's would work? or 215 40 17

 

Um...17 by what?

 

There 10 inches wide

 

This I want to see. 10 inch wide rims in the stock wheel well

Have you tried to mock them up on the spindles yet and see if they will turn in front?

 

I need tires before i can actualy put them on and let the car down. i had the car jacked up the other day to take the fluid line off the rack and pinnion. so i decided to stick one on. the only way they would fit with the tires that are curently is for it to be jacked. There is alos about an inch and a half wheel spacers on it.

 

They are actualy 17x8 . there Borbet type m

RSPI posted this a while back:

The 215/45/17 do rub a little at lock. Heck, if things are not perfect on my 205/45/17's they rub a little.

 

Those look like they stick out 2 inches past the fender. Why would you have such large adapters on those wheels? What are the offsets/bolt pattern on them? I don't get it.

 

The bolt pattern for the rims are 5x114.3 and the stock bolt pattern as you know is 5x108. The spacers where giving to me for free and i only payed 50 for the rims. The car only has steelies on it and one is bent to hell from the last owner, so i figured i would try and put those rims on. i priced tires today and there $179 a peice for 205 45 17 cooper zeons. i thinking they may rub sticking out that far
