A 9 inch wide wheel with 4.5 inches of bs is gonna stick out 2.5 inches farther than the oem 17 and 18 inch wheels. I believe that wheel is available in 17x9 with 5.71 inches of bs which would stick out about 1.5 inches farther than the oem wheels.
do you think 2.5 out farther would look stupid? i havent seen one in real life it would be nice to have someone with a picture to help
