17 inch rims

Post by mx3man18 »

I am going to by rims for my mx-3 soon and I was woundering how 17's would fit. Whould I have to make any mod's to fit them or will the fit right on. If any one has any suggestions or has 17's let me know about it.

I have RS Limited 17's white- on mine...and I just lowered it...and it looks sweet! The fit really goes well...Do your research before you settle on a rim...cause some have wieghts and styles...Go with something light...stay away from chrome...too blingy...and way too heavy. Try to find local shops or dealers..cause they'll give you better deal sometimes...Tire wise...go with what is most practical....but don't short yourself on price...cause a shitty tire will just get ya in trouble...Go with Falken's or BF Goodrich

Does anyone know if this will affect the accuracy of the speedometer though, or - is there a better choice for tire that will affect it less? <P>Ryan
