thanks!....im not sure i want to go with 17s yet, maybe a tad bigger... and the wheels i tryed on the back will actually tuck in nice if i decide to go with them.. maybe roll the lip slightly for a cool look, but not really necessary

I really like what you are doing here. Alot. I vote for keeping the Budniks, but send them my way if you're getting rid of them :lol: .
Just for reference, these wheels are your same specs.(personally I think these front tires are too big) front 245/40-17 rear 315/35-17
