what tire profile are you running?
With your factory GTS style 14" wheel and tyre combo you are looking between 25 and 26" diameter.
So if you go up to 17" rims you will require a 45 series sidewall profile tyre to sit into the same 25 to 26" diameter.
You probably could go up to a 27" diameter if you wanted, but you would just have to watch turning on your front guards.
Staying in the 25 to 26" range something like 245/45R17 on the rear and 225/45R17 on the front would work fine.

did you have any geometry issues with wheel alignment running 17's and lowered? Is there any tips to keep in mind with camber and castor when running this combo?
