    This already looks one hundred times better. I've never been a fan of spider web wheels, but those look great! Keep it up!

    rim suggestions?

    Also, Tirerack . com gives you a "view on your vehicle" option. You can select the body style/paint color too.

    Changing rims, will I notice difference in width?

    Good idea, did a search for 17x7.5 and they don't look bad at all. Would definitely be willing to go that route if I need too. Quick question, if I were to sell my rims, what would be a fair price? There are some scratches/chips around the edges, but that's about it.

    Changing rims, will I notice difference in width?

    Yeah, I mean I've seen much lower, but my driving conditions make it rather annoying. I'm just tired of scraping. I think I'm just gonna keep the rims I have for now, raise is slightly and then throw some 225s on to reduce the stretch a tad and avoid rub. Some before and after pictures of...

    Changing rims, will I notice difference in width?

    Eh well I didn't think much about it either, but a few people brought it up. I ended up just researching it and quite a lot of people say it's not safe, but at the same time there are few that have had great luck with it. I just don't care to risk it. Regardless, that's only a small portion...

    Changing rims, will I notice difference in width?

    Well I'm already rubbing in certain places with 215's. If I throw a tire that would fit properly, 235-245, I can only imagine it being much much worse. But I've only heard bad stories from stretched tires, and I'm not gonna risk it. Not worth it, haha. I'm looking to raise it slightly...

    Changing rims, will I notice difference in width?

    Yeah I'm looking for some nice 5 or 6 spoke ones, but no luck in finding any. I've checked tirerack and wheelfire, any other sites you would suggest?

    Changing rims, will I notice difference in width?

    Ha, no! Sorry. I'm sitting a little low at the moment, I don't know exact height, but probably about 3/4in - 1in from tire to fender? I can almost fit 2 fingers between tire and fender if that provides a better perspective. I'm actually looking to raise it about 1/2 - 3/4 inch this coming...

    Changing rims, will I notice difference in width?

    Right now I have 17x9.5 Rota Grids on my accord, and I'm looking to switch to a smaller width. The reason being the tires I have now are stretched (215/40/17), which isn't exactly safe...and if I go bigger they will rub. I can't for the life of me find any good looking wheels that are 8-8.5...
