Nick, I just took my car to a rim shop and asked a guy to measure my backspacing and tell me whats the widest tire I can go with. He said I probably could have gotten away with a 12" wide but he would not chance it so I went with an 11". Once I got the 11"s on there and looked under the car on the inside between the framerails and the rear tires I have about another inch. So I guessed right or maybe could have gone with an 11.5.
