perfect rim size

my car is currently dropped with tein s.tech springs thats about 1.5 in. front and 1.7 rear, what i would like to know is ,what size rims can i put on with out worrying about modifying wheel well or rubbing on the inside of it? i know 16s will fit fine but there's a set of rims that i want that are 17s. any suggestions on rim size and tire size epsecially for 17s?

 

17's are a good size to go, I have them on the 2003 EP3. What car do you have?

 

imo 17's look like a joke on a del sol... because the del sol was made to have 14's.

 

Ah, then just go 15's with normal size tires (not low pros) and keep her lowered...you drive a del sol?

 

yeah my brother and i have del sols... mine currently has HX rims and my brother has 15 in. slips

 

i would personally stay with 15s maybe 16s..and you wont have to worry so much about clearance issues :rocks:

 

yeah we'll see i guess i'm going to have to test fit at various sizes to see what i like and whats comfortable. but the rims i really want only make 17s. oh well we'll see.

 

16X7 +38 offset

 

sol brothers what kinds of paints did u use to paint your wheels? they are very nice and i have my vx 13s that i'm thinking about doing.

 

i used duplicolor wheel paint. i am not satisfied though. im going to have them powdercoated. the paint is chipping and looks kinda crappy now...

 

i would def. go no bigger than 16" on it. it looks best i think personally..

 

Yeah, I wouldn't go larger than 16".
