Freedom through Jesus
I've read many pages on this issue but im hoping enough people reply on this one to make it the only one that needs to be read.
I have 17x7" Motegi MR7 and am running 205/40/17 which is a real uncomfortable ride when you hit the slightest pothole. Have had one blow out and 2 rims cracked and repaired. What is the biggest tire I can run on stock suspension? Really hoping I can step it up to 205/45(I think this is the max?) without any worry for rubbing issues. And how wide of a tire can I run? Please, share your experiences! Include all suspension mods so people know what you have done to make what ever tire/rim fit. Thanks a lot.

*Update - 205/45's will rub on stock height. Modification is required such as "rolling the fenders" 205/45's on a 16" Rim will fit fine and give you a much more comfortable ride that 205/40's on 17's
