Hey all,
I'm looking at purchasing a new set of wheels/tires for my '89 LS. I really would like some help from the TM'ers who have updated their rim styles, gone with larger sizes, figured out offsets necessary, etc.
Here's the size I'm really hoping to make work. *215/45R17*
All of the rims I've looked at so far are 7.5" wide with an offset of 45.
Has anyone run this size before? This is where I'm truly lost as I have no accurate way to test/measure if these dimensions will work with steering lock-to-lock and with suspension travel thrown into the mix. Below I'll link to the rim styles I'm interested in and tires. Granted, I'm not rich, so some budgeting needed to be done, though after much research I am happy with my options. I'll try to post a couple picks of the Lancer tonight or tomorrow for visual reference (for your viewing pleasure, my fellow boost abusers)
Wheel options 1&2 are the same design, different color option.

(I was very concerned at quality of the Sentury's, but after some research and consumer reviews, it appears these are actually a great value for the price)
Best regards,
