I was wondering if anybody has any info about running a 205/45/17 tire with a 1.75-2 inch drop. I have 205/40's now just wondering if i woudl be bale to run a 45 series tire to help with the rough ride and protect the rims better. Thanks

you might be running into rubbing issues.. 205/40/17 is pretty close to what you can run when lowered.. the 45 might just be too much.
