5.0 guys plz help me!
ok here's the deal... I am getting new rims and tires. I am going to get chrome cobra R's. I am 18 and in high school, as you can imagine I cannot afford it. So my dads buying them for me.. haha nice eh? But heres the problem I want 17' rims and he went and talked to some guy who said I better go with 16' rims because on the car I have (a stock 89 5.0 lx) they may have to mess with the springs and stuff. Is this true? I know plenty of people have 17' rims is it a problem in any way? Should I go for the 17 inch rims? I can't afford to be messing with potential spring and or any other suspension related things. Any thoughts or fact are welcome!
Thanks,

I have 17's but mine is lowered 2 inches....
they rub a little, but i wouldn't think stock ride height should have any problems with them??
but i could be wrong, i have no idea honestly

just throw 245/45/17 on them and you'll be fine. who ever told your dad that is fully of it. i have that current setup right now. soon i'll be putting 275's out back and 255's up front.
