    DECENT 17s are definetely not $120 a tyre... if some good 15s are $200 a corner, 17s will be at least 250+.

    Im not talking some absurdly expensive tyres, just some good street ones. RE001s was the ones i called around and got the price of 200 a corner for 205/50/15s. or maybe was $180 a corner, not sure. but still 17s will be close to $1000 for a full set change unless you really wanna go for those bob jane all rounder bullshit they advertise on TV

    Good 17" tyres are a lot more than $120 as charliebrown was saying. The last set of 17's I got were Kumho KU23's for $117 a corner, but that's considered an 'entry-level performance tyre' so is probably just bearable. Fortunately they were out of stock so I got a free upgrade to KU25's. But this was a good 2 years ago and the price of raw materials has gone up, increasing the cost of new tyres, so I doubt you'd even get KU23's for less than $130-140 a corner. If you want good tyres in 17" you should be budgeting at least $150-200 a corner.

    +40 offset and 7" wide is good. Roll your guards if you have to but you shouldn't get too many issues with scrubbing.

    I reckon your rears are rubbing on the inside.

    not guards.
