17'' wheel tire size. Rims are 9.5 wide. what's a good size to run. I'm considering all the options....stretch, mild stretch.....no stretch.

Too blank. What wheels? How low? Are you looking for maximum performance? Looks? Budget? There is a variety of tire sizes for many exceptional purposes.

I could care less about performance. I'm stock under the hood. I know most don't run stretch tires on 17's but I'd figure I put it out there. The rims seem wide enough though and I got a deal on some OZ competitions 17 x 9.5 that was too good to pass up. If all else fails, I'll just sell them to a friend. I'm not even sure of the bolt pattern but I think they are 5 x 120. The ebay seller didn't know so I took a gamble. What can I say I'm asian haha

if its 5x120 it wont fit at all....

yea we know. if i keep them i'll buy an adaptor/spacer on ebay.

OGS300

why the effort though? u can get more aggressvie/disher rims in 5x114.3

true. I guess i just got bored and got a steal at the same time. i bought all four rims shipped to me for $315. it was too good to pass on. worst case scenario, I sell them...most likely for a small profit.

old school oz joints. who remembers these? found out they are 5 x 120. gonna run some adapters and run 225/45/17s and 255/40/17 tires. thoughts? opinions? like? love? hate? I drove on rubber bands last year and would like some rubber for a change haha

how much do adaptors throw off your offset? i'm thinking it'll kick the wheels out even more? there is so much I don't know....bolt pattern, offset? even how these wheels will look on the car. how much i have to adjust the stance after wheels and tires are mounted. oh well, just gonna see how it goes. part of the joys of not being able to leave a car alone haha

OGS300

spacers will space out how many mm u decide the apdators will be eg 30mm and with that number you minus the offset on the wheels

Thanks OGS300! I don't know the offset of the wheels unfortunately. I'm thinking because they are an old school wheel that was most likely off of a corvette or something that the offset would be pretty low? i dunno...I'm just gonna buy some adaptors and slap em on....and see what happens next.
