Bucktown are rides would be so crazy side by side. The combo I'm running is 17 by 7 with 225/45 tires. I love the tires they are so damn wide.
Thanks guys!

i've thought about getting 225's. do you have any trouble with rubbing? i thought i might have problems with u-turns.

Perfect fit, and looks beefy... Try getting some when you wear out your tires.
By the way your grill is smooth!

So Dave, you don't have any problems with rubbing? I'm getting some 17" rims in a few days, and was trying to figure out if I wanted 2 go with 215's or 225's. But your car looks tight, man!!

Nupiannupe, if you cvan put in the extra few dollars I suggest the 225s. When I first got my rims, I bought them used and they had 205/40s let me tell you I was not all that happy. When I got the new tires my wheels were at a whole new level.

Thanks for the love guys

My speedo is probably a bit off, but I don't know how I could tell for sure!

the only way i found out, was me and my friend drove side by side on a road (i was on the oncoming lane and i do not recommend anyone trying this out unless they are trained professionals and i will not be held liable for anything that happens if one chooses to do so) and we tested out like 15mph, 25mph, 40mph, 60mph, and 70mph all were fine and same except for 70mph... was wierd
