i would like a 15 0r 16. right now i have 215/45/17 on 17x7 team dynamics. i got srt brakes, and want to help bring some of the weight back down. i will be running coilovers, and want at least a 225

I would go with a 15x7 with a 225-50R25 or a 16x7 with a 225-45R16.

A set of 15x7 Slipstreams can be had for $500, weigh ~13lbs and will clear SRT brakes.

Or you could go with a 245-45R16 on a 16x8" wheels. Though it'd be a little taller than stock tires.

if u decide to stay with a 17", nitto offers the nt555 street tire in a 225/40/17. Those tires were on my 17x7 konig glides when I got them. I loved em
