I was looking at getting new rims for summer tires so I can just swap out my winter wheels with summer wheels when the seasons change. I like the tsw trackstar-5 black flat wheels a lot. However the sizes are 17x8 and the falken 452s are 215/45/17. I'm worried the rims will stick out too far. Does anyone have any firsthand experience with these? The curbs by me are really high and I don't wanna rash my nice new rims. The 452s don't come in 225/45/17 as one of my friends suggested to get. I'm going to call the website to see if they know but they aren't open right now. I don't really want to go higher than 17s on the rims since the streets here in Chicago are tore up to all hell.
