Ok, So I will have the money together to purchase new rims this week. I am purchasing 17" Hp Racing Evo's w/tires. I am purchasing them from Wheelguyz.com. Anyone have experience with them? Also I would like suggestions on what tire size I should get with the rims. I plan on lowering the car later in the spring about 1.75" on Tokico Illuminas. So what would look best with the suspension I plan to purchase at a later date? Maybe some of you guys could post some pictures of your setup if it is similar.

Here are the rims

The wheels are 17 by what? 7, 7.5, 8...? I believe a good size is going to be 225/45/17...maybe a 235 but they may or may not rub.

17*7

I'd probably say a 225/45/17.

Do you know what kind of lowering springs you'll be getting? 225 may be too wide on some springs.

I was barely able to fit 215s on mine with a 2 inch drop (supposedly 2" anyway). The second time around I went with 205s because I didn't wanna touch the fenders.

Just a thought since you're going to be lowering your car.

That is true. With my TenzoR springs I have 215's on my car right now but I could fit 225's. They are supposed to be a little under 2" drop.

I am going to purchase the Tokico Illumina Strut and Spring Set. Their springs are suppose to lower 1.5" but settle to like 1.75"

I'd get 215s just in case. You can always go wider on your next set once you have the springs on. 215s look good on 17x7 imo.
