What tire size are you running?  
I can get a cheap set of rims of this size. I also have a lot of 17" tires at my disposal but they are all like 17 235 45 or 245 55 ect. off bmw’s

What are you guys running and what are the biggest sizes I could probably fit?

I’ve got 17" X 7" (+35) 235/40/17 on the rear

I think bigger than 245 requires spacing

mine is always changing in an effort to find the perfect ballance, and depending on what my “sponsor” has… :ugh:

currently i am running 245/40 up front and 225/50 on the rear.

So far i have used

205/40 - gay, i know  
235/40  
225/45  
225/50  
245/40  
215/45

on 7.5 width though

i’d say go with 215/45 or 225
