P PR5Matt Member Mar 7, 2005 #1 I just bought some RSL Elite rims (17x7" w/ 48mm offset) and I want to use a 215/45/17 tire. Is it possible? Look at the pic of my car to judge. Attachments 000_0345.webp 414.6 KB · Views: 196

W Wes Member : Mazdaspeed 3 Mar 7, 2005 #3 If they are for SURE a +48 offset, then I would say you'll be OK on a 45 series.

I want the extra sidewall for our bad roads. If the 215/45s won't work, then I guess I'll compromise and go with 205/45s
