Bigger Rim size?

Hey i was thinking about getting 17x7's with 205/45-17's tires with them

My question is how much is too much when the car starts to have camber problems? as in rim and tire size? and is this set up on rim and tires ok?

oh yeah the car is have is a 96, 240sx (not the SE)

Thanks

OK first of all, Ive never heard of changing rim/tires changing your camber. Your camber will only change when you mess around with the shocks/springs. I got a 97 and my rear camber is still out. I got a Tokico/Sportline setup. The fronts are within spec after I got it alligned. The rears are not. They're within 1 degree out of spec which personally wasnt bad considering they were 6 degrees out. PDM eccentric bolts should fixed that problem. As for the tires. With 17x7s personally id run a wider tire set up. Id say 225/45 should be perfect plus itll get rid of some of that fender gap. Im running 225/40s on a set of 18s rite now.
