Hello first time poster with sort of unique question considering my circumstances, i don’t know much about whee dimensions so bear with me. I want to know the dimensions and offset I need? Im currently on oem wheels they are 18” running 225/40/18 tires. I want to get 17” wheels but want to keep the same width and flush fitment the oem wheels have already.

Basically I want 17” wheels because the tires are cheaper but want to keep the same look and width. I’m running Falken azenis rt615k and plan to in the future.

TLDR: Just need help finding the right specs for 17” wheels I need to achieve the same fitment as oem 18” wheels while keeping same width.

Edit: Also any suggestions to the following brands? Don’t want any wheels cracking on me as I do mostly drive hard in the canyons where to pavement isn’t perfect:

ADV.1

AVID 1

ENKEI (last choice because they are quite expensive for me at least. Willing to spend if they are worth it in the long run)

MOTEGI
