315 IMHO is the limit on a 17" x 11" wheel . . .

A 315 tire on a 11" wheel pretty much maxes these cars out without mini tubbing.

What do you mean by "before it looks bad"? You mean that the tire is gonna stick out half a foot past the fender?

Anyways...here's my car with 315's

Well stick with 315s then. As you can see in my pics, nothing sticks out.
