Hi y'all,
I am still trying to decide what wheels/tyres to get.
What I want to know is:
1 is a 38 offset too much on a 7.5 inch rim? Am I gonna rub the guards?
2 Do 8 inch rims with 235/45/17 tyres rub at anytime (std height suspension) ?
3 235/45/17 seems Sooooo much wider than 215/60/16, do they rub? Do they tram-track? Is the steering heavier?
4 What are Fulda Extremo's like? They are a 97 load rated tyre. (I have to get 95 or higher)
I know a lot of what I'm asking is subjective but the more opinions I can get from people that may have first hand experience, then I can make a better decision.
My car is a VR-X S1 with stock height but with the factory wheel arch flares.
