Well most rims for our cars our +56mm offset 9 1/2 to 10 inch should fit with a 275 maybe 285 with no mods.... it did on mine but that was with a 275/40/18. you can go wider ON THE BACk but it will prolly require some mods. hope that helps.

Yep 17x11 has almost 8 inches of backspacing for them to fit right. You will still have to modify the wheelwell a little bit for them to fit fine but it wouldnt be too hard. Just a big mofo hammer to massage the inner fender well. Any other size smaller than the 11 inch rim will fit fine though. As far as my tastes I like chrome, and something that is silver with a polished lip too.
