I certainly wouldn't go above 19". I think 18's look good enough. Once you go too big it looks silly.

I agree here 18s is probably the biggest I would run. especially considering that 19 inch tires and beyond cost a ALOT of mojos.

I think anything bigger than 18 would look "ghetto fabulous", and the ride quality would suck with them being that big. I'm more interested in how wide of a tire you can fit in the back.

19's fit but the ride quality sucks. 18's look great and still ride nice.

19 are good if you want to go with a big brake set up. 18s too, I guess its just what you prefer. I would not go over 19s though! :type:

18-19's max, the new Crossfire has 19's or 20's in the back I beleive and it looks rather nasty, like its old covered wagon with big wodden rims.
