Default Question on rear wheel width...

Looking to put some new shoes on my baby when I finally get back from Iraq. So naturally, I want to go ahead and order them now so they're waiting for me when I return!

I'm looking for a staggered fit with the american racing TT black chrome wheels. My questions is, how wide can I go in the back without having to modify anything on the body? I heard 10" and 10 1/2" from a few people, but figured I'd ask y'all to be sure.

Thanks!

TT2? if so 17" x 9.5" front and 17" x 11" rear.

TTM?? the 17" x 9.5" front and 17" x 10.5" rear . . .

Only sizes available . . . and the black chrome would need to be custom.

TTMs, and what do you mean by custom? I see them on jegs.com in 10.5 and 9.5.

You wrote "black chrome" in your original post and AR does not make them in that. You can either get the polished TTII's or the Chrome OR Black TTM's.

No black chrome.

I had TTII's on the car with Sportlines (1.8" drop) and no rubbing whatsoever. I am now running TTM's with stock height and am thinking about running a 325/45R17 which is 28" tall and shouldn't have a problem either.
