Hey guys, i recently obtained some wheels in 17x7. Anyone know of a good tire size for a decent strech. Perhaps something like 195/45?

Com'on ladies, post some sexy pics for me. (by ladies i mean the fellas, however, this does not limit responses to just the fellas. Posts from the ladies are very welcome, and by sexy pics i mean tires mounted on the wheels, not nudes)

you want what to happen with what?

go look at motorcycle tires if you want stretched on a 7" wheel because honestly that is really all you will find that will stretch on a 7" wheel. a 160 will probably give you that look youre trying to get... along with a 90mm spacer or something like that

this isnt even the right section to post this in.

Lmao I'm not asking for a crazy ass strech. I said "decent". And 90mm spacers? WTF!? Yah if I had wheels with +60offset.

17x7 generally = +40 offset.

my 17x8.5 +4 is flush with the lip of the fender.

sorry youre right. in order to get the same fitment you would need 55 mm spacers. so 2" spacers and 5mm slip ons?

i used to have some wheels in +40 offset and i had some 25mm spacers on them and my finger barely fit through fender and tire haha. The wheels i have now are +35 offset. maybe 195/45 is fine.

This is not the place for someone who is ABSOLUTELY CLUELESS ABOUT WHEEL FITMENT to be starting a thread.
