LOLOLOLOL.

welcome. we have a wheel/tire size thread. please look thru it.

D2's are hawt looking but they're EXTREMELY heavy. 20+lbs for a 17x7.5.

17x8 +35 would be a better choice. you can run 235/40/17. yes, you will have to roll the rear fenders.

no problem. i had them for a couple of months. had some 215/45/17 falkens on there and it looked crappy. stupid falkens and their "stretched" look.

i wanted something with a lip, got a good deal on them, so i tried them.

unless you're dumped, they dont look good.

there was a blue ep (mickey for those that remember) and chazwick (black ep) that had gold D2's. it didn't look too bad.

1. I would hope your gonna roll your fenders if your dropping on a (note the bold part) 17x8.5

2. My personal opinion is 17x8 is more than enough

wait I just read your on tein springs idk how much springs droppage is but I still think 17x8.5 is kinda overkill

Yeah its not dumped but it looks decent for springs i guess. I think i might just go with the 17x7.5. That black ep is about my height in the rear but mine sits lower in the front. IMO those D2s fit that ep very good. I want something with a lip just not an aggressive lip. I just want something that will look good and be a head turner.
