Default rim/tire size

so its springtime and im gonna get some new shoes on the whip. What is the biggest tire and rim combo i can go with without rubbing? right now the stock 17 inch tires just look too narrow and bland.

also, are there any specific companies i should go with?

1. You need to search

2. 18 to 19 inch is the biggest I would go.

18x8 or 19x8

That is what I would go with.

If your going to run 18's, run 225/40-18 tires.

You may see rubbing on full lock.

With 19's there is bound to be more potential for rubbing all around. However you should be fine if you run the right tire.
