Default Rims..

I finally got my income tax check so instead of lowering the carim gonna do a set of 17" rims with kumho 711 in 205/40/R17's. this size shouldnt cause to many rubbing issues right? oh and incase anyone wants to see the rims im getting.

tires should be fine. make sure wheels arent too heavy though or else your car will be slow as crap. wheel weight is important(to me at least lol)

yeah those will be fine and there shouldnt be any rubbing problems. Im gettin 17" SRT rims with that exact tire size: 205-40/17 and my car is gonna be lowered 1.6" and there was no problem with rubbing so you should be fine.
