so basically the center piece is more towards the front of the rim... hmmm k im reading this and it might be hard to understand.. i'll see if i can get an illustration put up on here....

the best looking size on 17's are either 205/40/17 or 215/45/17
this is without having any type of modification to the body....
with custom body work... i've seen 285/35/18.... or something like that... it was a modified wide body accord... very nice

is it like 40-42 mm from the outer part of thew rim to the part where it touches the hub/drum ? that seems to be right since there are like 4 cm
