does the "J" just mean inches?

Its actually not a measurement at all, its the type of rim
Oh I just give up. Fek wheels and there numbers, offsets that, J this, triple reinforced that, profile this, ET that.. WTF is ET anyway!... I have read nearly every wheel topic since the beginning of time on .org and I still don't get it! What is the widest 17" front wheels I can get on the VX without issues with normal tyres that are not silly low profile ones? http://www.vx220.org...MO_DIR#/sad.png I'm so lost
Stuwy, my fronts are 7.5J with 225 tyres. They rub at full lock - personally i think 7J and 215 would be good for track (and avoid rubbing) unless you want to be cutting things

No my comment was for stuwy, he asked about 17" fronts. I run 17 front and rear 225F (which rub) and 245R Aimy's are 16 in speedlines (my old speedline actually) with 215s that don't rub
