Alright, well I've finally decided on what rims to get but I have a little question before I actually buy them.

First of all, it'll be a wheel and tire package and it gives me 4 different options; 205/40/17 included, 215/40/17 for $50 extra, 215/45/17 for $40 extra, or 225/45/17 for $60 extra. The size of the wheel is 17x7 and the offset is 40mm.

I'm thinking about going with either the 215/40/17 or the 225/45/17. Which do you guys think will sit more flush with the fenders and or look the best? I'd hate to have to buy some spacers. Thanks.

I would go for the 225/45/17 or 215/45/17.

Cool, because that's the size I went with. They will be arriving on the 8th. Not a bad deal at all. $609 for 215/45/17 lexani tires and 17 inch ADR hyper silver rims. I'll be sure to post a pic when I get them on my Celica. Should look hot.

Got them in yesterday. They look really nice. Later that night at work one of my center caps got stolen, though...

Is it possible for the center caps to fall off if they weren't put on the right way? I e-mailed the seller on ebay telling him i got the wheels with one center cap missing, but he told me he has a hard time believing that. Eh, guess I'm gonna just have to buy another one. I'll post a pic of my new rims and tires soon. And yes, I know, you are all going to say that I need a drop now. I'm working on it.
