Hi,
I was wondering if I were to purchase 17x17.5 rims would I have to change my suspension system to fit the tires or could I just mount them and ride off? Please let me know ASAP! I have a ford focus 2008 SE Sedan

depends on the offset, going to need like a -42mm-45mm offset. i have 17x7.5 with a -40mm offset and i rubbed when lowered. if you are stock ride height should be fine it you dont hit big bumps with a full car load
