I'll update asap.. been swapping transmission pump, I'll update in a week or so with a decent camera..I'll get backspacing as well then.. I searched a ton to find what worked on a car that's lowered a tad.. Without looking ridiculous..

Anyone know the biggest tire I can fit in the rear with no modifications? It's a 16x8 rim

I have a 255/50 On a 17x8. You could probably go 275 with the right offset.

Most likely a 275 or 295, depending on things like is your wheel well rolled, how tight your suspension is, and how centered your body is on the frame . It's really going to be different for each car. You should really start a new thread if you have questions though.
