hey guys my friend has a 2000 neon, he replaced his tires once with 17's. i'd like to know if you need further adjustments if you put on lower diameters like these 15's made of alloy. he's like putting back 15's coz 2 of his 17's caught some serious cuts.

17's are the size ya wanna go if you value your ride quality. yeah droppin it will eliminate that unsightly wheel gap, but you should go with quality products to make sure youre improving your ride instead of makin it worse. Do some research on different products in your price range and then make a decision. As for kev_stratus tell your bud to get a different set of 17's. you can find em way cheaper than those 15's youre lookin & they'll look better. But if he did go back to 15's he'll be just fine. thats stock size.

My 2000 Neon has lowering springs and 17" wheels. I rides like a tank, but handles like it's on rails. It's give and take, I don't miss the comfortable ride, but others might...
