I have the stock 15" wheels on my 07 S versa...

Would upgrading to 17" wheels increase or decrease my wheel/fender gap?

Just trying to decide whether I'll drop it or not after the upgrade...

Thank you!

Depends on what wheel width and tire size you intend to use.

Well, I did a little research, which I should have done before I asked the question anyway, and found out that when you go with bigger rims you should be going with lower profile tires so as to not mess up the wheel circumference because this will mess up your speedometer!
So the tire is actually the same size as stock and the fender gap will be the same...

Yessssir, whenever you increase the rim size then the sidewall of your tire will need to decrease as well.

basically...you'll have to lower it lol.

I think 205/50/17 is a good size for our cars. Yes it is larger than the stock overall diameter, but not by much, and won't screw up the speedo that bad. That's what i'm rocking, it's a size that will be square with the wheel, no overhang, but no stretched look either, just nice and flush looking.

I wanted to put sixteens because I was afraid of the wheel looking too big. But I do like 50 series...
