stock wheels are 17x8's. Tires are 245/45/17's. If you are getting wheels for the back also you might as well get 17x10.5 wheels with, 315/35/17. Or even a 17x9 wheels with 275/40/17 tires

if he's going to be getting just 2 wheels for the back and some dr's to go with them,, why would he go wider rim? it'd be heavier

you can either go with another set of stock rims and go all the way up to a 275/40/17
or consider going with a smaller rim, perhaps lose a few pounds along the way

i suggest the stock rim though with some 275's

good luck

I am looking to get DR along with some rims so I can just change them wen I want. What is a good size rim and what tire would be decent? If there is a website let me know that also?
