Hey guys, I've got 17x7.5 motegi mr12 wheels. I've got a massive wheel gap and want to get larger tires to fill the gap. Mine tires now are too low pro and I don't want to lower the car! Right now I have the Falken Zeix 215/40/17s.

What would best suite me? I'm thinkin the stock GSX tires like 215/50/17?

Keep in mind my rims are 7.5, not the usual 7. :D

LOOK at my gallery if you need to see pics.
 
i have the same size rim with 225/45/17, but we are still gonna have wheel gap regardless a 50 series tire may work. check out my gallery to see the 45 series tires, im just scared the 50 series will rub but im not sure.
 
You didn't list your offset which is a key factor in tire fitment. The 215/50/17's would almost certainly fit regardless, but they would only fill about 1/4 inch of your gap.
