I was wondering if 17's would be the idea rim... and what would be a good width for them?

17x7 with a +38 offset with a 215/40R17 tire would be an ideal set up

I'm going more for looks, cuz i'm not worried too much about the performance with it. I have a bunch of other things on my list of visual upgrades I still have to look for/purchase.

then a 17-20 inch would be the way to go. There are tons of cosmetic mods listed on this forum, read and have fun

Just put on a set of the Sportmaxx 17 x 7 with 38mm offsets on my S sedan with Yokohamas ES100's (215/40's) & with the Tanabe NF's. Had to roll the lips on the rear & still rubbed with 2 people in the back seat. Now going with the 205/40's & hopefully should give me the little extra clearance I need.

After reading the recommendations (38 - 42)on the board & wanted to run as flush as possible

Get some 17" Enkei RFP1's at 15.2 lbs you'll get looks and performance...

Cheers

I agree Enkei rpf1 are lightweight and not expensive
