2004 WHEEL Width & Offset HELP??

I'm a Corolla head (86).. i'm new to the Camry scene.. I'm pickin up a 2004 Camry in less than a week and I want to put wheels on it and dump it.

The question I have is..

Whats the widest width I can go?

Whats the lowest offset I can run on different widths?

Will 18x8, 18x9, +38 offset on both work? how about 17x8, +34 offset on both??

Thanks In Advance!

rolling on stock suspension, I sized the rims based on the BBS rims which comes as the optional rim on the 02 thru 06 camry.. I got some advice from another member about some springs, which I am going to try whe next I am replacing tires...

They won't work. I'm running 17x7 with +38 offset, TRD springs and am having rubbing issues with 225/50x17 tires. The rear fender lip is bit lower than the top of my tire and the front lips are even with the fender lip to give you an idea of the drop my car has.

Brej, looks like you might have rubbing issues if you drop your car without trimming/rolling your fender lip.

is there anyway to (decrease?) the offset w/ Stock rims? i'm plannin on adding Tein springs and thought a wider stance on the car would help it handle better...

but then again there may be issues w/ rubbing?

What do you guys think?

Thanks for the heads up... I will really have to review my idea of lowering the car. I may consider a slight drop and stay at the 40 profile tires, but I will have to look at possibly rolling the fenders... Thanks...
Besides I would hate to loose my rims, like the white rims with the car.
