planning to get rims need help please.

I was planning to get Motegi MR12s 17inch with 215/40/17 tires Dunlops FM901s. Would this tire size fit or should I get 205's?

The offsets of the motegis are 17x7.5 +40mm

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Do you have a sedan or wagon? Either way it will not work on either application. Please let me know if there's something else you like.

Thanks, Rishie

Good that it fits. Are you running a 205/40/17. IF so that will follow the recipe. The wheel is a +43 so that's a decent offset. Congratulations. Now show us some pics please.
