Would these rims fit?

Thanks...(using them for snow tires and tire size is right).

Yes they will fit!!! Make sure no more than 45 sidewall... But you will be dropping the height of the car by .5" in the front and 1.5" in the rear... Could be very little clearance in the snow...

Why go so wide? 225's are better. And you will have no problem in the snow. I am running the same size wheels.

A few months back when I asked the tire question...

It was suggested to go with the size mentioned above to keep the abs traction control so thats what I bought...

I'm still concerned with the 42 mm positive offset so I'm hesitating yet again.

With the 235/45/17's will the 17 x 7.5 wide 42 mm offset fit the crossfire?

Except the tire size it is what i have on my car. No problems what so ever. You can see my winter setup in my gallery. You may want to look into getting spacers.
