I'm looking to get new tires for my 17" wheels. But I want something with a little more sidewall than what I have on them right now. The tires I have right now are 205/50R/17, on all four wheels.
I want to stay the same width, but increase the height of the sidewall so it fills in the wheel well just a little more. What size tire should I get?

Any other comments: Fender rolling is easy so dont be scared of it and do your research dont believe just anybody. I see alot of advice being dispensed that is scaring people into buying weak offset wheels(Great offset and great tire size is possible)

I need some help with some wheels. They are 18x8.5 's all the way around with a 35 offset. Is that going to look goofy as hell. I can't find many pics in this thread with people on that offset and what tires they are using.
