Hi all...time to change the TRX rims! I'm interested in year round rubber, decent ride, less hot rod..but hot looking nonetheless, and as unfettered with spacers, clearance issues, etc. My choices are 16"x8"Wheels with 225/50/16 rubber or 17"x8" Wheels with 235/45/17. I've researched the archives and want to read your thoughts. What are you thinking...and why? Thanks for your comments!


I have the BBS RX 17x8 with Bridgestone Potenza's. I also just had the 750 bushings put in for less vibration. No clearance problems, but you do want to dodge potholes.
