while we are at it...how 'bout 15/225/50 in a 7" wheel w 38+ offset? Will they rub agx? How 'bout coilovers? Will I experience some tire roll? Or should I just stick w/215's?

I believe with the correct offset 275/40/17 are possible in the rear. I belive the offset needs to be a +27 or maybe it was a +35 or so I could be wrong, but with correct offset anything is possible.
