Default Wheel Size

I don't know whether this is an acceptable Tech question, but...
I was looking at the RONAL wheels website, and wondering if the LZ's would fit on my 75 without any mods. I was looking at the 17x8s on front and 18x8's on the back. Can I go any wider than that? Or will those wheels not fit at all without any mods? Can't seem to find any numbers on back spacing. Any help would be nice. Thanx.

a 9.5 inch width is really the widest you can go. altho there has been some that have been able to stuff a 10 inch in the back, with a few mods. 18's will require you to relocate your e-brake cable. goodluck.

When I purchased the Torque Thrust II, I had to go from a 255 60r15 to a 235 60 r15. The front kept rubbing when I turned the wheel lock to lock.
