Im thinking about purchasing these wheels

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...=WDVW

The rears are 17x10.....

I want to run 275-40-17 tires in the rear.....

Im going to find out the offset tonight (email seller).. however, will a 10in wide rim with 275s fit in the rear of the Q?

my guess is yes but the offset will have to be relativley high. dont take my word for it though, just an educated guess. also with that big of a sidewall the car will probably be pretty high. im not sure what the stock wheel and tire size is on your car, but just for sake of argument, if you originally had 205/55/16 tires, the car would be about an inch higher with thoes 275s. If it was me id use a smaller tire, say 255/40.

Its the same overall diameter as the 215-65-15, or very close.....
