You sure you have a 17x7 and not a 17x7.5. i think ima stick with 215/45. Now all i need to to find some. Where would be a good spot to find tires.

Yeah, I've had the same wheels since 2003. Im sure.

no rolled fenders. i might just play it safe and get 215s unless i find a great deal on 225s.

What offset are you guys running to have rubbing issues?

My wheels are +35 and Ive been running RT215 and RT615 Falken Azenis 225/45/17 (To which Ive measured to acutally be 232mm wide) for the last 7 years with zero rubbing any where and no rolled fenders.

My offset is only +42 and the rear tab hits badly, I have the General Exclaim UHP tires. I run 45 series also.
