Don't quote me on this, but I believe the widest we can go is 9 or 9.5 ??? Someone *cough*Pres*couch* correct me if I'm wrong.

17x10! Wow, that's a wide one. Is it necessary? (a bit overkill, I think).

judging by the offset they MAY fit (without hitting the shocks) BUT you will have a turning radius of about 2 inches and i'm not sure if i want to flag that as sarcasum or not because it may be that bad.

i had found the same deal almost on a set of 17x9's but coulden't do it cuz they where too big.

long story short don't but them.

You can go as wide as you want, but if you want those to tuck, forget about it.
