yea those tire sizes are very close and will work.

dont get tire size and wheel offsets confused. offset of a wheel is the distance from the mounting surface of the wheel to the true centerline of the rim

hold the phone. don't do this awful deal. shop around

you're getting ripped off

$3000 for wheels only? They're charging you msrp + change.

you already have tpms sensors. you just swap those over.


if i were you, i'd go with 19" wheels. They will be noticably larger than your 17's, and the ride won't be so harsh. they will also look less like monster truck wheels.

As long as you don't get the black lip, the wheels will look large enough.

plus, you can get the 19's for $400-something/wheel.


these are 19" stock height

haha...they are comming. rims are on the car what I was thinking with 20" rims and chicago roads but it sure does look good. I see I could have pushed it more but overall I am happy. Exhaust goes in Saturday am with the BBK then I will take some pics and try to get some sound of the exhaust.
