Default Should I switch wheels???

Currently I have some Boyd Coddington Smoothie II 17x11 & 17x9 on nitto, and was wondering if I should sale them and get some Billet Specialties Street Lites in the 17s. I currently have 315/35/17 nitto dr and they just are not tall enough. I was wanting to leave it stock height and was wondering if there is any more choices that would be as wide, but taller. Thanks!!!

Thanks for the reply. So, you think I should keep the wheels I got, and just buy tires? Thanks again.

If your just tired of the look of your wheels, have you considered getting them powder coated for a new look?

Definitely cheaper than buying 4 new wheels, and the Smoothie II is a nice looking wheel!

Thanks for the help. I believe I will just keep my wheels and get some taller tires. Thanks again.
