what size tire would you recommend
 
ok, I have another question - they are 17x8 with 40 offset. this is not a problem correct? I will end up with 225/45/17 tires and not lowered as of yet.
 
save ur money and lower it first.  I wasted my money on wheels and tires and my car looks rediculous since it's not lowered.  Look at my sig - don't make the mistake i did.  Lower it and then slap some dubs on it.

Don't dig on the newb's sig!!!
