Probably could run 7.5's MAYBE. You probably would have some serious rubbing issues though. If you had the rims shimmed, you could get it to fit. Then again, I'm no expert, and I DOUBT even what I say is correct, I just hope that I can get you on somewhat solid ground.

It depends on your height I think.
If your car is very low,you cannot use too wide wheel.
The wheel offset also need to be considered.

you roll the fenders with the right offset and you can fit 8.5's in there. But i would recommend you just get the usual 7.5 unless you need the extra performance of a wider wheel

^^ do it. Grab those maxi lip things where the wheels are the same width but different offset to give the back wheels bigger lip

gen 3 and 4 wheel set-ups are highly similar. i'm running 8 inch wide rims at 38 offset, lowered with no rubbing and no rolling. check out the wheel sticky at the top. tons of good info!

I roll the same size and offset on mine and the only rub is on the inside of the well......but that is when the coils are ALL the way down
