17" Original Wheels


Ulrik

Recommended Posts

Since my wheels that is on my car now "sticks out" from the fender.

So i cant lower the car with coilovers/springs, then they would just hit the fender when i turn hard, im gonna change to my original 17" wheels.

But they have worn out tires on them and are ugly silver wheels.

 

I thought i could paint them gloss black to match the car.

But i need some new tires on them.

Whats best fitment ?

 

Size is:

 

17x8 JJ

ET 50

 

Tires that is on them now

 

Front 235/45/17

Back 235/45/17

 

What tires are the best to put on them in the front/back ?

I want as wide as i can put on them, without causeing any problems.

Im gonna use these till i can afford real nice Volk wheels.

 

Cheers

if the are original 17's they should be 9.5 rears, why are they 8" all round? are you driving four front wheels?

 

If they are 9.5 on the rear it should be 255 40 and front 235 45

 

Hmm strange, let me have a look...

rears should be 9.5 as jamesmark says, sounds like you've got 4 front's. You using spacers on the rear?

 

Hmm i see, i didnt know that :(

Hehe i had these in my garaget for over 1,5 year now.

I got another 17" wheels on my car.

 

Well on the ones that is on my car now, i need spacers on both front and rear.

Thats why i want to change back to these stock..

 

Edit:

 

Okey now i know that i got 4 front wheels...

Damn it...
