I'm thinking about getting a new set of wheels but want to price out tires first.

The wheels are 17x8 + 48, I want to stretch the tires a little so im thinking about going with a 205/35/17, or should I go with a 215/45/17...any ideas?

Thanks

First one is supposed to be 205/45/17*

215/45 won't really have any stretch with a 17x8..go 205 or 195

I'd also get a lower offset if u can..unless u want a less aggressive more tucked look..

i ran a 215 on an 8 inch wide wheel a while back and it isnt really stretched, so as stated above, go with 205 or less if your lookin to stretch

Nooooo don't get 17x7 those will be sunken battle ships, id say got with your original plan, and get 215/40/17's. No point in stretching tires if your not lowlow. I'm running a 215 on a 10" wide rim...

These are the 17x8 +48 rotas


These are the 17x7 +38 Enkei's

Still trying to decide which ones would look best on there

Get 17x8's with a lower offset like +35. The 205 series tires will give you more of a stretch but just remember that the tires will be thinner. With 205/45/17 tires, the overall diameter of your wheel tire combo will be about once inch less then oem.
