17" rota attack, lightweight
i love 17" wheels on my ride, but don't want to sacrifice the acceleration, i saw a groupbuy for these wheels that weight only 15.5 lbs for a 17". anyone know if this wheel will fit a 205/40/17 tire? thanks

real answer:
205=tire width in mm, 40=%of width that sidewall is,(ZR)sometimes found here is the speed rating of the tire...17(the last #) is the size of the hole in the tire, IE, what size rim is needed to fit the tire.

sorry didn't want to sound ignorant, because I was under the impression that a 205/40/17 wheel was a 7" wide wheel, but the rota attacks are 7.5", hence that is why I was asking the question. So, anyone still have a clear nonjackass answer?
