Dear God, help us. 
If you just got your FD, you have a lot more important things to worry about than the wheels...
Also, it appears that you already have aftermarket rims with 255/40 17s. Stock wheels are 16x8, +50 offset, with 225/50 16s. Typical upgraded 17" wheel packages are 17x8.5 front/17x9.5 rear, both +40 offset, or 17x9 front and rear, with +45 offset.
Please don't put some fwd wheel on your FD....

thanks, I got the car like a month ago but the rims are not the first thing I have done to it, I had alot of maintenance done at Pettit Racing to get the car running fine, rims are my first exterior upgrade, andyes the car does have aftermarket rims, but they are ugly tri stars...thanks for the help

Do not cut corners on the rims. Don't do the wheelmax thing please. GEt something of good width.
Rynberg knows what's up. lol. He must think the same **** as me when we see things like 17x7 for an FD.

*goals for the car -- street, autocross, road race, etc
*budget
*some general wheel preferences -- 5-spoke, mesh, etc.
I'm sure he can help you select a good set of wheels and the appropriate tire sizes.
