I recently purchased some 17x7 inch rs limited wheels from a friend this week. I like the look of these wheels they have a gunmetal finish with a nice polished lip. The only thing I dont like about these is that they are only 7 inches wide. My question is what is the widest tire size I can put on these to make these wheels look wider? I have the tokico illumina kit and was wondering what size I can go with that will fill the rest of the gap up nicely. In other words what would be a good all around tire size for looks and performance. Thanks in advance guys. I hope what I wrote made sense lol

 

225's are as wide as I would go on a 7" wheel

 

What about the side wall width? I dont really want too much of a low profile wheel because the gap will be horrible with my illumina suspension. What should I go with, a 40 series tire maybe? Thanks for you quick reply

 

if you are running stock SE 215/55/16... a 225/45/17 will be slightly smaller about .3 inch or a 225/50/17 will be a little taller about .5 inch...... I would go with the 45 however the 50 will fill the wheel well a little more than your stock combo

 

235 would be perfect on a 7" thats what the 2k + have stock on the SE
