   i dont think you can my mate tride but he culdnt fit his and his is standered hight. he cut his arches but even then if he went to fast over a bump with no one in the back it would rub

   Aswell as probably not being able to... 16"s look better imo. You can lower it aswell with 16s rather than having it riding high on 17"...

   17's wont handle well on a sax best to stick with 16's or 15's for the best in the corners
