Post your wheels + tire setup

In order to help others find the right wheel + tire combo, can those with new wheels and tires post their spec (eg: size + offset) in here so others can reference without posting too much? If there are specific infos on some wheels, please post here too

I don't have wheels yet, but I will be the first to contribute

Si wheels on sedan: 3 mm spacers needed on the front

how do you guys like the springs? how's the ride quality

i'm working on my rim/tire package soon

how do you guys figure out what tires size?

the dealer told me HFP tires in 17" are 215/40/r17

but aftermarket stores are telling me to put my rims on 205/45/r17s <- thats what my old rims were on as well

That hyper black is a nice match to the GG (at least in that picture). Love the spokes as well. Great wheel choice for that car.
