Default Hypothetical Question

ok here's the deal...i have a 2004 s2000....looking for wheels

if i were to run 17x7.5 front and 17x8.5 rear, what is the ideal tire size for each?

planning on running the eibach prokit springs until i purchase a full coilover setup, but am worried about rubbing, rolling fenders, etc.

i've searched this topic and found numerous info, but i would rather get some quick input from you guys

thanks in advance

It cannot be really determined due to the fact that you did not post offsets, but ideally, if your in reccomended s2000 offsets, you are able to run what Mr. Santos posted below.

By the way it sounds, and the size and widths, are you looking into and type of Rays/Gramlight/TE37's?

Also, take into account that depending on how low you are going to be dropped, it can affect tire sizing tooo. Just a thought.

What are your offsets?

yea TE37's....just concerned about issues with rubbing due to a 1" drop....figured since they're still 17's i'd probably be OK because i don't wanna have to run camber just to make some damn wheels fit..
