Say Jeff, I happen to know the biggest thing you can fit under there...  215
45, on 17" wheels.  My wheels are the Borbet Type C's, 17 x 7.5.  Big f#$%^&g
wheel!!  The offset of these puppies are 30MM, which is on the money, but they
aren't hub-centric.  Easily fixable & not even a concern with the addition of
rings (included.)  This set-up is .1 inches smaller than the stock rolling
diameter, which isn't even close to how much the tires would wear anyhow, so
that also isn't even a consideration.  The car handles like it's on rails,
too...  I've got some pictures of my car with these wheels on it on their way
back from Seattle, I've promissed Mr. Fletcher & Mr. Schumacher some pics, but
I think I'll have at least one left, I may snail-mail it to Mr. DAmato for the
web page so's you can see what the wheels may look like on yer car.  Happy
shopping!
