17" Wheel Recommendations for NC
Discussion
17X7.5J or 8J is ideal with an offset around 45-48. 215/45 is most people's go to tyre size, depends on what you do with the car; track days, fast road etc. Enkei RPF1 are awesome but expensive. Most people go to Rota's or TD 1.2's.
There is a set of RPF1 for sale on Nutz, not mine, but they're a great buy if still for sale

949 Racing 6ULs are a nice wheel if you can stretch to something fancier. I don't think I've even seen the 14-15" ones on anthing over here. The new 17x8 ones are 900 odd for four. I'm thinking about swapping my Wedsports for those once my tyres need replacing.
215/45 are the choice as above, I think it should have had those from the factory. The original wheels are 7" wide and have offset of +55, so an 8" +45 or so, takes you to barely less inner clearance and a nearly an inch out, which should be good to avoid any rubbing concerns with the 215/45s. I have 9" +49 and 235s on mine, and it doesn't rub at all (1" lower, camber F 2deg,R 1.5deg).
