    Another one of my damn rim/tire questions

    Lug pattern for an 03+ Corolla is 5x100 correct?

    Now, If I get 17's what size tires can I get? And If I get 18's?

    tire sizes

    As long as you stick to a 25 inch diameter and don't go any wider than 225mm, you should be able to make them fit.
    If the rim size is over 7 inches, or less than 40mm offset, then you will not be able to fit 225s and still lower the car. They will hit the wheel well lip.

    A 225/45/17 is 25 inches.
    A 225/40/18 is too.

    Hope this helps.
    If you want to do some size exploration, go to www.tirerack.com - they have all the sizes listed under the specs tab.

    yeah but if yuo go 215/35/18 you'll have more tire options and more space so you dont rup as much, i weight 280 and my bro weighs 200 and we have a system and can have someone in the back and my car still doesnt rub with almost 2 1/2 inch drop.

    Thanks Guys!!

    Everyone keeps giving me different answers, I'm still not sure on if I should go with 18's or 17's, I already purchased the Tein Stech springs, but I'm waiting to drop it once I get the rims.
