Biggest wheel / tire

Hey guys and gals.

I've searched all over this forum, but unfortuntately did not find a satisfactory answer.

What is the biggest wheel you can put on the front and back of 98 240SX SE? I am looking at some volk wheels with a giant lip, thats important to me. I can always have the fenders rolled, so thats not exactly a problem.

But I would like to know what the maximum size is, and offset, especially with a big lip that I am looking for.

Thanks

Front: 9"-9.5" with 15+ - 23+ offset
Rear: 10"-10.5" with high Teens or low 20+ offest

And it matters on the size of the tire, you might have to run a little negatic camber or roll your fenders. BTW, which Volk rims are you looking into? GT-C? GT-7?

So 19 x 10.5" in the back is squeezable. None of those, probably something else, like GT-N maybe.
