Default Wheel Fitment Questions

Hey everyone, so i'm in the market to buy some new rims and im not really looking for an aggressive look. I'm lowered on eibach pro kit springs which gives it about a 1" drop. So from all your guys' experience...what would be the best fitment for rims. I do wanna keep the staggered set up though. Any help would really be appreciated guys. Thanks

The "standard" safe setup for aftermarket wheels is typically,

Front- 17x7.5+50
Rear- 17x9+63

This maintains the OEM staggered setup and avoids having to worry about your fenders.

This is the best bet for safe & since youre not in to the aggressive look this should be perfect. Actually, if you get a set of Volks, you might be able to find the sizes below which I believe do not require a roll & give a little better look as well as mild increase in track width:

Volk CE28/RE30/TE37

17x7.5+43
17x9+54

You can run something like this for tires:

Fronts: 215 or 225
Rear: 245 or 255
