thanks andrew. that chart is confusing me a bit tho. but from what i gathered, it looks like i can run a 17x9.9 rim in the rear, with a 275 40 17 tire and not roll the fender? that's pretty cool. a guy i spoke to earlier today said he wouldnt go past 235 with a 15inch rim on the coupe bc of its small wheel base.

frdnut, you had a bad experience with a 4.5 backspacing? i spoke to specialtywheels and asked him about a 5" backspacing and he said he's not a fan bc it brings the wheel close to the leaf springs. i made up my mind and want to run a 15x8 rim so i can run 255/60, if i can run 275/60 without rolling the fenders i would do that too. what do you suggest?
