    Awesome. Wheelmax has got to be the best place to get rims from. Soooo cheap. What tires are you getting??

    I want to save up for some Volk GT-N's once my car is fast.

    Those are awesome... I wanna some pics when you put them on your car
    I may only get 13-18 MPG, but try and follow me in the mud and you'll get stuck.

    I really hope you don't have any clearance issues for going with the wrong tire size. 205/40-17 is correct, 205/45-17 is not. Theirs are huge differance in height, over a inch. That means that the tire will be a full 1/2" closer to any rub points. If they hasn't sent the rims and tires yet, I urge you to change your tire size choice.
    That size will also slow your car cause it's like running taller gearing and your speedo is going to be off too.

    If you can't change it, I really do hope it works out ok

    What's the offset on the rims?

    I have 205/45/17's. As far as the speedo being off. I know that its off by two-three mph (depending on speed), but according to the police radar stands its right on the money. Go figure
    Unfortunately it is like taller gearing too.


    You probably will rub a little more with that choice.

    Close but not quite... http://www.wheelguyz.com/ <-- slightly less selection but when they say "unbeatable" specials they mean fucking UNBEATABLE. I've seen 17's w/ tires on there for $444 shipped.
