We are looking for the biggest tire to fit in the fender well.

MadTib-

We are happy to have you. You are welcome here.

That all said, picture this:

There is a group of people standing around discussing wheels, and what is the largest wheel that will fit with a LOWERED ride height. Mid converstation, some one walks right into the center of the group and says...

Hey everyone!! I'm new here and thought I'd start with this topic.

I have 17" rims with 205/40/17 Yokohoma Parada spec 2's.I haven't lowered it yet,but the ride quality I have now is very good.Here's a pic:
Can you hear the crickets chirping as a silence decends upon the group?

I'm not saying this to be mean, or to hurt your feelings. Please make sure you READ the posts in a thread before you reply to the thread.

Even when I'm fully lowered my wheels dont rub, even on hard cornering. I dont know what the fender diff. is on an elantra as opposed to Sonata but you do realize that just having lowering springs only lowers your car and and increases stiffness by like only 17% so your car will still have that comfort bounce and lean as opposed to having beefed shocks and struts which have very minimal bound and rebound, pitch and roll.
