I wouldn't use them. I know they're HRE's but the tires look too meaty and the wheel looks tiny. I say sell them

That's the reason why it's not on the car now. If i'm going to use them, i will put the stock 225/45 on it.

One more vote to sell them. Didn't your car come with 18's to begin with?

I had 17" stocks on my car. They are definitely small, and only looked okay because they're OEM. I feel like aftermarket 17's wouldn't look good.

Why dont you install them on your car first and then debate.. If you have a nice drop you may be able to pull it off.
