Do you mean what size metal wheel width? I think in the other thread you said you were already running 12.5" wide tires already right? If so the wheel wouldn't change.

Wheel width suggestions..

Do you mean what size metal wheel width? I think in the other thread you said you were already running 12.5" wide tires already right? If so the wheel wouldn't change.
Yes thats right, am i correct in saying the oem cucv wheels are 15x8"?
Im thinking that a larger width say 15x10" would give me a wider stance??
Is anyone running a staggered set up...wider rears??
Also i think 35x12.5 has a wider footprint than my current tyres 33x12.5 is this correct? thats why i asked for suggestions ;)
Many thanks.

You'd want about a 3.5 to 4" backspacing. The stock 15x8's had 4" of backspacing so this would push your rim out 2" basically.

Personally I prefer 15x8's for that width wheel but it's my preference for wheeling, not looks.
