What do you guys think of these rims?

They are EXEL RS-GT's. (17x7)

just wondering if anyone is using them, and what the offset is. I'm wanting to run 215 or 225/45/17 up front and maybe 235 or 245/45/17's in the rear. Do you think i'l have rubbing issues? ( I don't, but then again, I'm not that smart.)

Thanks guys

Ryan

Not sure on your technical questions. But, on aesthetics... I like them. They would look nice. :)

I may be wrong...but on a 7" wide rim you cannot fit 235 or 245 in a 45 sidewall size. They won't fit on the rim. I think widest you could go is 225/45 on a 7" wide rim. Again, could be wrong, if I am please someone correct me cause I would also like to know if I can fit 235's or 245's on my 7" wide rim.

Maybe you should ask the vendor what kinda offsets those rims come in?

ok thanks for the info. 225's all the way around should be pretty good for me.

Nice.....wheelmax has a warehouse down the road from here....maybe i can trick a crackhead into stealing you a set....Just kidding....(call me)

Five spokes is good, but those are too skinny for my taste. I like more meat to hide rotors and calipers, especially when the car is rolling.

I think you may have some tire fitment issues.
