Default Pic request :: Anyone droped on 17s?? pics please

i just got a set of goldlines and i want to install them but im a lil worried about clearance with my 17s... so does anyone have any pics of their ride? anyone have any problems with them after you installed? like tire rubbing, spring bottom outs, i understand that the front lip will get it the worst, im talking about more serious issues...

i had a buddy of mine in the back seat passenger side hes a large dude, on turns he would bottom out the rear passenger, and you would here the wheel rubbing against the well, if i install my goldlines and this guy jumps in am i going to be able to go anywhere?

thanks in advance

I would recomend getting spacer for the rear if thats what you ment on clearing. Theres a thread somewhere here that has the recommended size spacer.
So far I didn't have any probelm about bottoming out w/ my 17"s on, especialy when I have three adults on the rear. Funny you stated back seat passenger side (right side rear passenger?) Normally most common problems occurs on the left side rear passenger. (Behind the driver) The Fuel pipe in the rear wheel tends to hit the wheel, though that common with 18". Also your offset on your wheel can be a fator too. Mine are 7mm of sets wheels. I think anything beyound 7.5 will rub against the fuel pipe if I'm not mistaken?
