What are the widest wheels that will fit inside the fenderwell on the s12?

I'm running 8 front and back.

I think 8/9 is the limit for the front depending onyour offset.

for the rears you can prolly go up to 10 if you have the right offset.

8" in the front w/ no rubbing?
What offsets are you using?
What size tires are you using?
I think 16"x8" all around would look sweet on the s12.

ya i want to know what offset we can use because i found some rims, here is the size and offset of the rims i want 16X7.0(+38) 16X8.0(+38) will that work any replies would be great.......... thanks

it is supposed to be +38 and +38 i dont no why it put in smiley faces

because you put a bracket after the 8

and I just rotated my wheels today...checked the stamp on the back. sorry boys...17x7. 43+ offset.

but an 8" WILL work if it's got a 38+ offset.

on the front with no rubbing to run an 8" you'll need a rim with around 20+ - 30+ i'm guessing.
