    8.5 is the biggest you can go I THINK

    KRU fitted that size on his 08 and it scraped on the inside of his rears, i think. You can ask him about it.

    all depends on the offset. With that sort of width having the right offset will make all the difference as to weather it fits or not. Probably easier to have it too far out because you can always roll the guards or add some camber .. theres not much you can do if its rubbing on the inside without alot of trouble.
