I would advise against this crime, esp at stock ride height the 17s will make your tiny wee little car look like a Mattel Barbie car. Stick to 15 and 16 inch sizes if you can, I have two friends who used to ride 17s on Sols, and they have both gone back to stock now. If you wanna purchase his rockin rims, I can find out how much he wants. He's had them one season, so the tires as far as I know are still in good shape.
