First off-- don't cut that car up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Second go with thinner wheels maybe 8", do you really need 17" wheels or just like the looks of them??????
You can't just cut up your car to put bigger tires and wheels under it unless you want it to look like S%^$#$^&*T. excuss my language. You could get your rearend shortend and tub the inside of the trunk, but thats not a five min. job.
You do what you want it is your car but I don't believe anyone here is going to tell you to cut your car up for a bigger set of wheels, but who knows I am not always right.
