Do you think I'll have any rubbing issues with a 235 on an 8-inch wide wheel?
Thanks,

Those Avon Tech A/S are the highest rated all season performance tires on Tirerack right now. Took over from the PZero Nero M/S. I'm planning on getting the Avons when I get my wheels.
I know that they wouldn't be the best tire choice if you live in the desert, but in NJ or IA it's a whole 'nuther story.

That's a "Good-to-Go" fitment on the wheels, however, for a trouble free/rub free fitment on the tire, I would recommend sticking with 225/45R17's! For what it's worth, the Avon M550 A/S is a great choice for an Ultra High Performance All-Season tire!
If I can be of some more help, or if you decide to order, please feel free to give me a call at the numbers listed below. Or, if you decide to order from the web, please feel free to enter my name in the "Previous Contact" area and I will be glad to keep an eye on your order!

Yes.. they do come in 5x100.
I ordered the wheels and tires yesterday and I got them this morning at 10:00am.
I decided to go with the Khumo Ecsta ASX because they were rated just as well in the tire rack tests (not the customer survey #'s). and they are $20 less per tire.... and 4lbs lighter too.
The lugs I got with the wheels didn't fit so I dont have any pics of them on the car yet.
Customer service is AWESOME
I'll have to new lugs monday morning.
BUY FROM www.tirerack.com
I definately reccomend them!
nice wheels. crappy offset.
