I'm probably going to run a 28-32 offset with 14x6 inch wheels...which is RIGHT at the fender.

With a 7 inch wide and a 34, you might start to stick out

7" +38 is just about the limit you can go. also, depends on what tires you run. i use 225 width hoosiers, which are a lot wider than any street tire.

i run a 8.5" wheel with +19mm offset, but some people have referred to me as "crazy". go figure.
