If you're willing the stretch the tires far enough, you can make almost any wheel fit within a reasonable range of course. It's not about the wheel size, it's more

If you're willing the stretch the tires far enough, you can make almost any wheel fit within a reasonable range of course. It's not about the wheel size, it's more about tire choice.

The front fenders will need to be rolled/shaved/whatever method you prefer. It also depends a lot on your ride height.

The best method to do is to lower your car to the height where you want it. Grab a ruler and measure your inner and outer clearance. It'd make it easier if you got your car aligned to where you wanted it too before you did some measuring. Take that info to a wheel/tire calculator and see what widths and offsets you can do.
