Not sure about the wheels but I see you're looking for clear tails. Make your own, I did. Unless you don't like that look, then nevermind.

Here's a lil info from Cheston's website.

For the Max, stay within 35-40mm OFFSET when buying a rim. A good overall suggestion for 17x8 rims is to go with 235/45 tires, and for 18x8 rims, go with 235/40 tires.

 

yet some more info.

Rims: 16X6.5 Tires: 215-55/16 (225-50/16 will fit)
Rims: 17X7 Tires: 215-50/17 (225-45/17 will fit)
Rims: 17X7.5 Tires: 235-45/17
Rims: 17X8 Tires: 235-45/17
Rims: 18X8 Tires: 235-40/18

 

the guy at the tire shop wass saying that the rim and tire may hit the front sway bar?is it possible..the tires are al
ready there
