Hey i'm looking into buying a set of used rims I found and they dimensions were 215/45/17, will these fit on a non-lowered 2000 tiburon without rub??

How far have you lowered your car? I've got 215/40/17 with a 1.6" drop and I get the occasional rub over bumps. Also depends on offset.

he said a "non-lowered" car. Yes, it should fit on the car.

Yes the 215/45/17's will fit as long as your offset isnt crazy. You can fit 255's if you have the proper offset on your rim.

I believe the offset was +40.

Now would 215/35/17 create too much of a wheel gap without being lowered (Only on Gr2 Struts) or will it look/fit fine.

That is a matter of opinion and is purely up to you.
