I am getting ready to place an order for wheels and tires and my question is what is the widest i can go on the rear tire without rolling or any mods to my fenders. I dont know weather im going with 17s or 18s so please help me with both sizes. I am lowered about an inch and a half.Any help would be helpfull.

Man, the widest you may be able to go is 295s with some 18inch wheels. Or maybe 315s for 17s if you get some thinner 315s (Sumitomos/Nittos etc). It really varies. I would recommend getting 17x11s with 315 tires and just doing the minor mods. Its worth it.

Thank you for your advice.What kind of minor mods would help? and how hard is it to roll the lip on the rear. what tools would i need.

BFH and rolling the fenders. Someone on here rents a fender roller, for $60 or so. But I just pay to get mine done. I've paid to have it done on two seperate cars, one person charged me $50, then a different person charged me $75. Its worth it though man. Just make sure they know what they're doing or the paint can crack and ripples can form in the rear quarter panel.

Definatly go 17x11's with a 315 I only had to bfh mine a little and didn't touch the bumpstops, and my cars lowered almost 2"

thats what i would go with is the 11's in the back with the 315's cause i got 17x9.5 all the way around with the C5's and i wish now i would have kind of waited cause there gonna offer them in 11's later on this year but honestly i would go with that set up
