Thanks, but one of the reasons mine fit the car so well is because of my FRPP springs also. That made a big difference.

Thanks for the info, does look so good without that large 'gap' above the tires. May have to add springs to the ever increasing list, I'm quickly falling into what you said before.. I'm not going to mod the car that much, then... ...lol..

I'm still prob going to stick with the 17x8's I just got, I've pulled one out of the box and it looks good, but I've got to check the rest of these (they are take offs)

Hijacking a little here with some questions:

1. Everyone's got pzeros (235/55's) on these wheels, has anyone tried the BFGoodrich Advantage T/A in this size? Or are the pzeros just better?

2. Is there another size you can put on the 17x8's that are a little wider, without losing any height? Or is the 235 already about the max to go on this wheel that looks 'correct'?

3. I gotta search around here on getting TPMS gadgets for these wheels, I don't want to switch em from the other wheels (for some stupid reason). I've seen some ebay kits complete with aftermarket bands + ford sensors - not really sure what/where/cost for getting this stuff for a second set of wheels. Is there any aftermarket stuff that is part of the valve stem, rather than the band type sensor? Don't the 10's have this style, will those work with our 2007-2009 systems?
