Default Re: A Focus-friendly tire diameter chart

i have an 06 ST
with factory tires, yes factory
was thinking of going up a size to 17" but not dropping the series, i.e. 205-50-17 id possible, the tire would be one inch bigger overall, what problems will i see?
also i was loking at some rims, in fact most rims i have looked at are +42 off set, where discount tire guys say +43-60 is the reccomended offset range. whats your guys opinion. it will be mostly for looks, i wanted to fill the wheel well a bit more, with out giving up any cushion. if not the 205-50, maybe 215-45 tires...... this is all assuming i find a deal i cant passup, ad 800.00 bones for tires and wheels IS alot of gass!

p.s. off subject, but who all has 06 ST's? i have alot of questions to ask about the 'factory' tendancies on the car.

peace
