Quick Questions

1) What is the highest profile tire i could go with on a 17x7 rim with a 42mm offset without it rubbing.

2) Would a 225/55/17 work or would i have to go with a 45/50.

3) Should i look for a 30mm or 38mm offset?

4) Would the rims look "to far pushed in" to look "clean"

Im not dropped yet but the lowest i would go is eibachs' 1.2 1.2 sportline drop, since my friends 1.7/1.5 drop is to low for houston (4th gen, I don't think they sit any higher or lower stock). I have a 3rd gen, no front lip,side skirts, rear valence etc... just stock.

you can run 225s or 235s. I would use 5mm spaces unless you want to get longer studs
