When you change your rims you don't need to change your shocks or springs unless the shocks are blown. Just make sure you get the correct size tire, which for 17 inch rims would be 215/45/17 or 225/45/17. For the rims make sure it is 17x7 or 17x7.5 with an offset in the range of +38 to +45. If you get the right tires and right offset you will not have any rubbing issues.

all u need to do is pick the correct offset and ud be fine, with stock suspension and 17" wheels u could go with a fairly big(50-60) side wall if u wanted to.

this should help ya find the offset and size for u.

You have a PM. Please don't PM and post a thread at the same time.

btw, I have 215/45/17 and I wished I would have gotten 215/50/17 so it would have less fender gap.
