You guys are forgetting that 17s typically come on tires with lower profiles. A 245/40/17 is exactly same height as the factory s13 handling package tire. So they would look exactly the same. ---

meh, style, schmile. I run 17" no suspension. But thats just cause my buddy is starting to get pissed off about the 20+ 17" tires I’ve left in his shed over the last year. I don’t really mind the huge wheel gap, gives a certain “real world drivability”. Bing knows, this way I can launch it in/out of busters in guelph without worring about ground clearance. ---
