Alright guys here's the plan... I have tax return money back and I'm getting rims! I need them badly!!!
17x7... +38mm offset...
I'm dropped on DF210s too...
Will these work? I also have a HEAVY system, so Im tuckin' tire in the rear...

yep. just run 215/45 and you'll have really minimal rubbing, or maybe none. i had 225's on 17x7+35 on coilovers, and i rubbed only on the bad bumps.

I saw some 17x7's with a +40 mm off set. Would 40 be like way too much? i'm guessing the wheels would just be set out a bit farther. Would that be ridiculous looking or what?

Other way around, they'd be sunken in further.

I ended up with 215/45 tires, so they're right in line with stock tire circumference. Almost NO drop in gas mileage, maybe 1 mpg at high mph because of the increased resistance from the wider tire.
