Question

Help answer this question below.

I have a 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer ES that comes with a 14" stock wheel. I want to install low profile 17" wheels; however, the manual says the car can only go up to 16" wheels. How can I install the 17" wheels that I want?

    fitting 17" wheels with low profile tyres should fit on this car fine, but if u find that the tyres are rubbing on the wheel arch you could have the arches 'rolled' to increase the space under the arch. but you would have to ask a mechanic to do this for you as it is quite complicated for someone who is inexperienced.
