    If you're going to purchase new rims for your car, make sure they'e wider than 6.5. I'd take that $395 and apply it to a different set.

    you can run 8.5" rims with 0 issues 9" would have to be like 48mm offset and would still poke lots

    9'' w/ offset +36 sits pretty damn flush.

    you could run a 10" rim with a 225 and look like an idiot VW or similar owner

    my car is running a 8" rim with a 285 currently, no issues

    i had a set of 17x9 with a +38 and the tires were 255 and almost touched the trailing arms.....so i doubt a +48 would work

    48+ too high

    I dont even think you can find a 9" wide rim with a +48 offset unless its custom
    98 GTP-Mods? Yeah, lots of them
