I am going to be putting some new rims and tires on my car in a couple months. It currently has the 245/55/16s on it. I am thinking something like an 18" with some drs for the back. Would you guys suggest I get 17s? Where would be a good place to get some rims and tires? What size tires should I get? What brand? Any info will help alot.

I would recommend Tomzwheels, they are a sponsor here on the site. I bought a set of American Racing TTM's that were 17x9 front and 17x10.5 rear with Vredestein tires. The rims are bigger than what came stock on the car, and are lighter weight. The tires have all kinds of grip! But what ever you decide, Tomz had the best price and I thought the service was excellent, everything was shipped to my door and I had them on the car in 30min. I shopped around for about 4 months and could not find anyone with a even closer price.
