chrome is not what you want. that is not what the stock wheels are. you have to look for a polished or satin wheel.

Click to expand...

The aftermarket wheels are chrome finish because there not OEM the OEM wheels are polished with clear,I have 03 cobras on my car OEM there by 9, but as far as how wide can you go i had OZ racing rims on my car before 17x10 with wide tires side wall to side wall made 12" of rubber on the groundand i didnt have any shock rubbing issues at all even if you would have a shock issue it would be the small one in the rear ive seen guys flip them when running wide slicks for clearance..
