Will they fit?
Ok, i'm sure its been asked here before but I am getting ready to buy some rims and everywhere I've been they tell me to get 17s. Why is this? bigger is better right? thats what i thought too. .
Anyways can someone tell my why 17's are recommended. Also to let you know, and so someone doesn't say "well if you're going for this or for that" im going for looks on the rims. I know the 18's may slow it down a bit but i don't take it to the track. SOOOOOOooooOO.... keeping in mind i want my ride not to look all flashy, i want it to look sleek .
1. Will the 18's be too big for the wheel well?
2. What size tires should i get? (i like the small tire look)
3. How much of a drop should i go?
3. Any recommendation for rims? my car is nighthawk blue and Im pretty sure silver and simple is what im going for

who says bigger is better? pshhh yea right. not IMO.
1) 18's are fine
2) 215/35/18 is the tire you want then.
3) How ever low you heart desires....depending on offset as well to though.
4) i think some kind of RH will look good!
