You can go anywhere from 17" to 22" diameter wise and 7.5" to 10.5" width wise. It has to be carefully combined with offset and than tire size. Result can be anything from excellent winter wheels to a crazy kidney stone removers. You should find some pictures you like and post here. Than we can talk about options.

Keep in mind tire costs as you shop, I found that 20" wheels were cheaper to put tires on than the stock 19" wheels.

You spelt the thread title wrong. It should say "Rimz" instead.

And you can go all the way up to 30 +

I second that. I'll take things that make you go 'Buh' for 400, Alex.
