i have already done a search and pored over many many threads, but was unable to find a definitive answer. if someone can point me in the right direction, or if my search skills are poor, i apologize in advance. however, i am looking at a new set of wheels at this time and wonder if anyone has been able to fit 12" wheels at the rear (without rubbing / rolling fenders or having the wheel stick far past the fender). 19x11 is also a possiblity. i would have to go with a staggered setup, which i'm not particulalry fond of, but what the hell, i will never track this car anyway and just want to make it look good. the fronts will be 19x10, as from what i've gathered, that's about as wide as you can go. can anyone give me some input as to the widest rears you have / have read of / seen? thanks all...

thanks for the reply, but i'd seen that thread and used the calculator to help me with my present setup. my current setup is actually more aggressive than the recommneded one in the thread with 19x9.5's all around with offsets of 20 and 15, f/r respectively, with no rubbing at all. just want to know if anyone has been able to fit 12" or even 11", 11.5" wheels in the back, what offset they went with and where the wheels lie in relation to the fender based on that.
