larger wheels coupled with eibach sportline

[trbab032886]

if a throw the eibach sportline kit on my 3, what would be the most recommendable size to get my wheels???

it's all about the offset. wheel size is personal taste.

well of course, but i would say that just for cost effectiveness (17's being much cheaper than 18's) would you say that this would be an ok combination?

i think 17s are as big as i would go, personally. someone here has 19 inch stern wheels on his 3 and i must say, they look nice, but it seems a little impractical. for me, 17.

I have 18s with my sportlines and they are fine. I have 47 offset and my wheels are 18x7.5 with 225/40r18
