          man, I'm gonna need to get spacers. 17x7 et42? :( I think I'll end up getting 10mm spacers sometime...

          when I get other stuff done and have extra money, I wouldn't mind getting 17x8's. maybe I'll get 18x7.5? would it fit?

            that offset is fine, my old wheels were et40 or something. I am just looking for a nice wide stance.

              i would never run an 18 on an ix, i have a hard time even running 17's. The tire selection is just way better than a 16 inch wheel. 15 is honestly the way to go, but i like some show to my car.

                They'll bolt up, but look exactly like stock wheels (fender clearance wise).

                Run 15mm spacers.
