    17's bring the car up to much even hammered u can still get up under it. 15's just bring it down just right. thats my 2 cents.

    Depends on the car though

    My EG sedan has 17's on it and they look perfect

    Most new cars now have bigger wheels on it so putting small wheels on it look stupid

    Wheel size has nothing to do with the height of the car until the diameter exceeds the size of original tire. You go up a size on a wheel then you go down a series in the profile BUT people are just too cheap or too dumb to buy the correct size tire.

    A 205/40-17 is EXACTLY the same outside diameter and radius within hundreth's as a 195/55-15 therefore there isn't any change in the height of the car.


    I'll just stick with my staggered OEM wheels...
