I really like the sleeper look of the car and want to stick with the stock rims. The stock rubber looks too narrow for my taste.

Right now the car has 245/45-17's.

Could I upgrade to 255/40-17 and not have any rubbing issues? I think this size is the same outer diameter but I'm nervious of interior rubbing.

Thoughts?

If people have that much time to complain about asking questions on a read board they really need to examine the time spending practices in their daily life!

I think we could benefit from a "knowledge base" of very frequently asked questions like other cars have (the Dodge Hemi for example).

Yah, I was a Navy Corpsman with the grunts for 5+years and since the shoe fit.......

Whatever you guys do, don't use the search button!

It is loaded with viruses and spyware and adware....

I clicked the search button 5 minutes ago looking for information about headers and it directed me to a porn site that was full of all kinds of nasty disgusting stuff. I would post pics but I can't find the image tag. How do I search for it?

I'd much rather make new members feel welcome than subject them to the Search-Button-Nazi police. They'll figure it out eventually and will appreciate the welcome and become contributing members.

Besides, we were all computer-newbies once. For me, it was like 25 years ago, but not all of us are geeks like me. :)
