I plan to leave my suspension alone but what is the widest tires I can fit in the rear?
I would like to go with 19 inch wheels since 20 inch might look odd on stock suspension.
Anyone run bigger wheels on factory suspension?

I think 20 is the max I've seen. I would assume 21 would be out of the question since they're be no room left for the tire in the wheel well...lol
Seems like 19X10.5 is the widest anyone has gone in the rear. There might be a 19X11 out there, but nothing I can recall off hand.
With the 19X10.5 you're gonna have to get the right offset of make it work. You're looking at +42 to +45...then of course the proper tire so it doesn't rub.

I can understand why you'd want to have non-stock wheels with stock suspension. It will be much easier to sell it later, since you'd basically just swap the stock wheels back on - much easier than undoing the suspension changes. In addition, I know where I live, I would be nervous driving through Pothole City with lowered suspension with 19's especially. It's perfectly valid.
