      17" !!? ON A 08 WAVE?

      Alright guys I know people have installed 17" rims with out a problem here but i just wanna confirm and see your opinions on it.

      So I drive a 08 Pontiac G3 (wave) sedan and I just wanna know if a 17" rim would fit and turn (as in wheel angle, and of course turn to go ) with out rubbing? I'm currently on some 15" inch stock honda rims (LOL) and it looks pretty unspacious (maybe its just me) already just for a 16" so yeah any help guys?

      Thanks in advance, CHEERS! ....DONT DRINK AND DRIVE THO haha

      There's a member on here with 18's on his. Personally, with a car as small as the Aveo/Wave/G3/Kalos/Barina, I wouldn't go bigger than 16 inches.

      dont give him pics

      i would go no bigger than 15-16 but 17s will fit easily, 18s work as well, somebody on cardomain even put 20s on it as well lol
