ahhh rims

How am I supposed to know what rims fit my tires? On the side of my tires they say " 205/40 R17 80H " I know my rim's are 17's but I look online and they say " 17x7.0" or something like that. I don't know what rims would fit my tire. Please help me!!!

Your tires are way too small for the car. On a 7" wide rim you should be using 225/50/17. I would sell those tires, get some 235/45/17's and a nice set of 17x8 rims.

What year Max is it?If your sticking with 17's then any 17 will fit your tires as long and you get the proper lug,offset,etc.The 2002's are 5x114.3 if that helps at all.Go to tirerack.com and plug in your make/model/year and it will tell you what size wheels you need.Hope this helps and good luck.
