Max rear tire size as the name of the topic states it. I'm looking to find out the maximum tire/rim size that I can fit on the rear tires. Without having to modify any of the wheel wells. Any suggestions?
By no modification, do you mean like not beating the **** out of the wheel well to make it fit? 
Id say you could get nothing wider than 9.5 and have it fit perfect. Then again, I'm looking for 10.5 or more, w/ the correct offset, and a little work, the biotch is gonna fit and look dead sexy. You pick...
Look in the wheel and tire section, I can garuntee you'd get a better response, or atleast more people to complain that you didn't search.

ok so no mods to the wheel well. I want to be able to fit at least 18 x 9.5 or 18 x 10.5 on the rear. Would i have to buy new wheel studs to complimate this package? I was maybe even thinking about a 19in on the rear. Or is that a little to big to fit on the rear? Hope this helps some more.

GM 18x10.5 Z06 wheels with a 8 inch backspace and 295/35-18 tires barely cleared on my car, but it was very close on both sides of the tire and there was rubbing at times going through driveways. You might get away with 10 inch wide wheels and 285's. 275's on 9, 9.5, or 10 inch wheels will clear for sure.
If you keep the car at stock height you can get away with more. But why not just roll the fender lip? It can be done without paint damage by someone that knows what they are doing. If you will do that and pound in the fender liner, you can fit 315's on 17x11's.
