Well I'm getting some 17's. what is the offset I need to get.

[angel_rolla]

+35 to +45. i myself are getting a 17" rims with +45 offset then i'll put 10mm spacer on rear. this will be wrapped with 215/45 tires

[eyeball96]

All the 17's I've owned were 40 offset.

[Fiox789]

Thanks A lot yall.

Alright I just got my rims I bought them off craigslist and I just noticed that there are some scratches on the faces. is there any way to cover over it.

you could do a powdercoat, but that would mean getting rid of the original look

how about some pics? we can definitely provide more help from there

if you can find one, a wheel shop can buff and fill thoes scratches right out.

After you installing the 17" rims, you might regret that why didn't take 18"s.
(That's what I thought. :ahhhh: )

Yeah, everyone on here recommends 17s because you can still maintain stock overall wheel diameter while still having enough sidewall so as not to damage your rims in the event of extremely heavy cornering.

In my opinion, 18" is the optimal size in terms of looks because it fills the wheel wells pretty well, even with low profile tires, but you also kind of have to compromise the overall wheel diameter, which can throw off your speedometer readings.

I like 17's there not to big and not to small. Here is a pic of a scratch rim and what the overall rim looks like.

[Fiox789]

Yes they are scratched up pretty bad.
