then they won't work, 17's are as small as you can go with about 2mm of spare room. Sorry man.

Does your car have 16" wheels on it now? If the answer is "yes" then these will work. They are kinda small though.

What car do you have?

GT? 4AT? 6SP? year?

If it's a 6speed manual, chances are it's not gonna fit.

You could always replace the brakes with smaller ones though

the only way these will fit are if you have a base model automatic from 2004 or 2005.
