Default Y2k Chrome From Tomz

Quick question (searched until blue)

I'm thinking of moving up from 17in to 18in wheels,
my question is, what tire/wheel combo works w/o modifying my car i.e BFH or fender roll? this backspacing thing has me scared to change size.

I currently have a 2001 WS6 stock ride height w/17x9 275-40-17


any help is appreciated

You should get a 18x9.5/18x10.5 set up. I believe the rears need to be ~53mm and the fronts? I cant remember. Just give tomz a call and Im sure he'll know exactly which wheels you need.
