Can 17x7 fit on a 225/45/17 tire? Saw USC-A4s post about his 17 inch rims and wonder if they are

too narrow for a 225 tire......by the way if you are reading USC, are those tires 225/45/17? Thanks

17x7 is too narrow. Better with a 17x7.5 or 17x8. I have mine on the 17x8 and everybody

always thinks I have 235's on my car. The 225/45 will look much wider on a 17x8.

Yeah, they are 225/45-17 Nitto NT450. They seem to fit just fine.
