Just a quick verification, from what I understand from the offset write up under the wheel and tires link a +25 offset would make the wheels stick out a lot wouldnt they?

Im looking at these rims:

But I have a feeling the +25 offset will make them stick out too much.

I think some people have run 8.5s but I'm pretty sure the stock wheels are something like 16x7.

edit: Three different stock sizes, 15x6, 16x6, 16x6.5

a 9.5" should be fine as long as it's the appropriate offset and tire size.

You can run a tire that's up to 10" wide.

Yeah but it'll stick out so much it looks ridiculous.

With a 9.5 and a +25 offset, they would be almost perfect on the rears, The front would stick out over an inch past the fender......

make sure you double check that, those aren't 512's they are 522's so he might be wrong on the offset as well.

haha yea it sticking out over an inch on the front wouldnt look so good...maybe if it was only quarter inch even half inch but yea that seems like it'd be too much.
