I would say that 19 is the biggest you can go. You might be able to cram 20s into the car but it will start to look oversize.

you want bling!...with the bling bling? Go 20s

Everyone has their preference, I think 18s are the biggest anyone should go....search for examples of pictures around the site...there's tons of options.

I think, 235-19-35, 32 or 35 offset.
Been along time.



Oh wait, You'll need to roll your fenders if your car has been lowered.

goto the tire/wheel post sticky in aftermarket upgrades.

from what i've found, with a tien/tokico combination on the lowering, you can go 18" with a 225/40/18 wheel +42 offset (it's what i'm going to be running, and what woa_its_jeff has been running).

i think you can do that same setup with a +45 offset too, but i'm not sure.

anything bigger and i believe you'll have to roll your fenders to prevent rubbing.

the biggest is 20's but it would be hard to maintain such a size rim for your model. You would basically have to stay on smooth roads. I would say your best bet would be 19's but the bad thing about that is the cost of tires but there is a price for everything though.
