cant go wider than 8.5 in the front

cant go wider than 9.5 in the back

Perfect offset is ET35mm

19 inches is max diameter.

Now of course you "can" go wider front and rear and you could put on 20"s but i doubt you would want to, or know enough about offsets/tire combos to make it work correctly.

IMO opinion those wheels are ugly!

check for ebay for cheap wheels (perhaps cheap quality too) watch out for ones made in taiwan and china...
