Anyone sporting 17" wheels on their MS3?

[Speed3Rookie]

Got the chance to get a set locally for cheap and I was wondering how much more gap in the wheel well plus how would the stance look with the smaller wheel.
Also need to know how wide of a tire I could run.
Anyone got pics of their set up?

Thanks

Thanks for the pic.
Looks nice. You plan on dropping her?

No desire. Car is already too low stock. I can barely get out of my parking spot without scraping. (Have to come in/out at an angle).

I'm actually pissed that most of the coilovers have more then a half an inch drop "minimum". =/ I'll probably end up doing the koni FSD's with a cobb or hotkis RSB.
