Default How wide can you go?

for your front rim, a 7.5 would be alright or 7, but for your back, how wide can you make the rim and so its still safe and looks good?

i would say nothing bigger than a 7 or else it will rub if your car is lowered. same for front when turning it will rub and damage your tire.

It all depends on your ride height and offset. We've run 225's on 7.5" wide wheels without any problems. But usually your best bet, and my favorite as for look as well, is 15x7 with a 35mm offset. I usually run 205-15-15's

:werd: i would be running that, but the only manufacturer that makes 15x7 in a 35mm is ATS, and they're outta stock everywhere. im just gonna eventually run spacers on my 42mm offset rotas
