Garage
The 9" wide wheel will not fit anywhere on the car, some scientists believe. The offset for the 7.5" wide wheel seems too low, so the wheel will stick out too far. I think the maximum width is 7.5 or 8" and the offset needs to be between 35-45.

16x9 et20 or 10? Yeah, good luck with that... However, it will fit if you're not lowered and you put maybe a max 30 profile tire on. You'll have at minimum 3 inches of tire out beyond your bodywork... I'd also hope you're not still under warranty, because something in your suspension will inevitably break, and it wouldn't be covered if you drove up to the dealer with those bad-boys on... Buy hey, if that's your thing, go for it.
