10 or 10.5 wheel will fit 315's. any wheel wider then 10.5 you will have to have custom made, and tires wider then 315's are rediculously expensive

no problem man. and i would reccomend tokico hp series aka tokico blues for shocks/struts. they work very well with the eibach pro-kit. cheapest i have found them new is $269 on brenspeed.com and thats for a set of 2 struts and 2 shocks
