hehe, your car has tan lines

it'll look pretty bad... 17's tend to rub A LOT more if you lower it and stock its a japanese suv... IMO i would go with 16 at the biggest and still drop it...

Umm... not really. Incorrect offset is what causes rubbing. Check this out. 185/65/14 and 205/40/17 have almost identical outside diameters. There is 1/100 of an inch difference in height.

This usually surprises ppl...

Running 17's without a drop is uber ghey. It looks like *** and is completely unneccessary.

Drop it on your 15's first, then step up to 17's--if you absolutely feel the need for big, heavy, dent-prone wheels.
