ok i have a question... I got some 17 by 7 rims and when i put them on they look like there gonna stick out the sides, now i dont have the tires yet and was wondering what size width rims you guys put on your cars and when i get the tires and can lower the car on to them would it look better?

Zikas got a Nubira 2 with 16" x 7" rims and 205/50/16 tires and it is not lowered... no rubbing problems at all.

i am not sure about the 17's but i think you got to use some very low profile tires or else the rear tires will rub on the spring base mount... this will make the rims more volunrable to pot hole damage and all.

indeed lowering the car would make it look nice with them 17s but it depends on your road conditions and if you got any rubbing issues but as a rule lowered cars look HAUT.

205/40-17's (no smaller size available to my knowlege) are fine, and that +40mm offset should be about perfect. Just be careful when lowering it.
