New wheels for BOP Xb
Hello all,
I've been a member for a while but haven't really posted much. I want to get new wheels for my Xb and have a couple of questions. I'm looking at a set of 17x9 for the rear and 17x7 for the front. What would be the best tire sizes to maintain the speedometer accurate and have a stretched look? I was thinking 215/40/17 for the back and 205/40/17 for the front. Also, is the difference in wheel size between the front and rear too much? Should I look for 17x8 for the fronts?
By the way, I currently have the 18" Enkei set-up which will be for sale once my new wheels and tires are on.
Any info would be great!
Jose.

Those tire sizes will work and stretch nicely. But if you really want to run the 9 in the rear you need to make sure your offset is correct. It needs to be around +20. The 8 in the front would be better, but also should be around +20, if you go with the 7 I would try to run less than a +20.
