What exactly are you trying to say? You are making no sense here!

Also, you say you have 17" stock wheels, but in your sig, its says you have aftermarket 17".

It depends on what rims you buy. Where are you buying the rims from? If it is a dealer, then they can tell you if the tires will fit.

My question to you is this? Why buy aftermarket rims and buy those crappy OEM potenza's?

your using tires, wheels and rims interchangably; tough to understand. I guess you mean what the title says.

first off, heh thats kinda stupid. the stock tires suck, and I wouldnt limit myself to rim sizes based on those crappy tires.

but to answer your question, you can do it, youd need 8"rims front and back. could go 7.5 and 8 if you wanted.

Actually before the past threads even came. I am waiting till July when I can afford 18in rims and new tires. I think i will be more content that way, and ultimately be happer cause money woulnd't be as much of an issue. Thanks though.
