There is no easy way just shop around for anything between 17 x 7 to 17 x 8

You will need an offset around P25 - P30 to get them to fit in the guards.

You can fit a 235/45/17" tyre up front if you roll the lip on the guards, 225/50/17" would be a good option also

Rears have quite a bit of room and a 235/45/17" fits fairly easily, anything up to a 255 wide tyre can be squeezed in but they are less common.

Performance wheels do the old looking stuff like minilites, magnums and dragways i think too.

As for 17's we got a set at work theyre italian made wheels, modern looking twin 5 spoke. Think theyre milano brand.

BSA/G2 will do something, probally bout 10 different wheels that theyre purchase as blanks and can drill to 4X108. Cheers steve
