If so any problems or dislikes?
Any help would be appreciated thank u.</TD></TR></TABLE>
My M7's are 16X8 up front with a +45 offset and the back is a 17X9 w/ +46. I had to cut the rear fenderish lip out and the front rubs because i have Spoon calipers with a spacer. But before the calipers it was fine up front.
edit:: i love the screen name, it made me giggle.

Re: WHEEL? (papa5murf)
The wheels im looking at are only 7" wide which is a shame because ill be losing a half an inch in the rear but i plan on running 215 55 r17 in the front and 225 50 r17s in the rear to try and compensate.

Re: WHEEL? (JDM knowledge)
Since the wheels i want are only 7"s wide and almost near stock size tire except for height, i would hope i wouldn't have to trim or cut anything.

Re: WHEEL? (papa5murf)
Yeah 
on losing handling but i really don't track my car or even beat on it that much, so i shouldn't have that much of a problem.
At least i think.

If anything, don't take away the handling of the car. Find the correct offsets/widths instead of finding something that might work. Why sacrifice function over form?

I hope you mean 215/45 and 225/45.. because the size you list is pretty fat.
Can you say.. drift-happy?
