so im thinking about picking up a set of 17x7 +40 offset wheels for my s13. i can get the wheels for $300 brand new or it can also come with tires for $650. The tires are 205-40-17. Im not good with tire sizes so will that fit ok on my caR? I'm running tein s-techs plus tokico blues. thx.

The offset for those wheels are horrible, the size is decent, but they will look like crap because they will be so far in your wheel well. Like said before, keep your money.

Do not go through with the transaction. Tire width is not sufficient, nor is wheel width. Offset is simply horrible.

look at the picture thread and search around for wheel sizes/offsets that people are running...
because 7' wide won't give you a good tire selection if you want performance (wider tires)
and +40 offset = sunken, looks lame basically, go to tirerack and read up on offsets, you'll need lower offsets to look right.

Stock sunk wheels > Aftermarket sunk wheels. Why? Because the stock ones didn't cost you any extra.

Like everyone else save the cash! 17x7 are too small look at at least 17x8 in the front and a better offset; you may want to upgrage to coilovers and 300z brakes in the future.

Dont do it. Keep the stockers until you find better sizing.

use that money to a better option
these days there are good 4 lug options
check the 4 lug wheel thread
but if you do decide to get the pizza cutters, invest in some 30mm bolt ons
