Need help with wheels

Does anyone know the biggest width size i could go on a 4th gen max with a progress drop kit. And also the offset and stuff like that. I really dont want to get spacers either.

If you don't want to go with spacers, then I recommend sticking to orignial offset.. plus, width size all depends on how much your drop is.. I mena, if you barely have a drop, then you don't have to worry about nothing, but, if the drop is extreme like a few members here, then you have to crunch some numbers.

example, I am slammed, in the rear, the tires a tucking just a little, not much, and I have the same offset as the oem rims, I am running 18X7.5" Rims with 225/40R18.. no rubbing issues whatsoever..

so it all depends how low you wanna go

Also depends on the offset... I'm going to be going for 17*9 +35 with maybe a 255/40 tire, that'll rub the splash shields when you're at full lock but it won't rub the fenders.

I have 245/45 on 16*8.5 +35 right now, those don't rub the fenders either, but they also rub the splash shields.

Will those 17x9 +35's clear the suspension in the front?
