these rims should fit right?

Got a question on outside appearance modifications. Questions about body kits, exterior lighting, just anything thats a visual mod on the "exterior" of the car. Ask those questions here.

After I get the tokico hp struts/tein s tech springs of course, just looking ahead.

42 mm offset, bolt pattern 5x100 correct? I would probably get 215/40/17 tires.

Goin for the gunmetal rims with red paint ya know, don't see too much of it.

Yes, they will fit. I like them :)

I have 205/40/17's on mine...but I personally like it. I know the 45's would be better for most, but I like the 40's on mine.

What's the stock srt-4 tire size?

Isn't it like 205/50/17 or something?

Nice rims man...should look pretty good on the ol' ride. Good luck, and I would go with 40's personally.

I thought the stock offset was 35mm? wouldnt a larger offset possibly cause some rubbing issues with a wide tire (such as the 215)? 7mm is a big deal when it comes to clearance.

Think I should go with 205 tires then? I'd rather do that if I knew it wouldn't rub



Edit this is a good article:

i have an 01 RT with stock suspension and srt wheels and they rubbed i had to run spacers and beat on the perches with big wrench to make it work. so it is possible but if you can get tires to fit without it go for it and i want smaller tires to not have so much tires folding when im cornering or autocrossing!
