: Stock wheel clearance help

I was wondering if any of you could do me a HUGE favor and take some measurements for me.

I am wanting to know how much clearance there is between the inner lip of the rim and the closest suspension member. Also, how much space between the outer lip of the rim and the fender?

These measurements will really help me/anyone out looking to see how wide we can go and with what offsets. Please list if you have either the stock 18's or 19's as well. ANY and ALL help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Oops! I forgot to mention I am particularly interested in the rear wheel fitment, but the front would be nice too!

Outer measurements are as follows:

Front - Face of the rim to outer edge of fender approx. 1"
Front - Bead of the tire to outer edge of the fender approx. 7/8" Rear - Face of the rim to the outer edge of fender approx. 1 1/4"
Rear - Bead of the tire to the outer edge of the fender approx. 1 1/8"

I hope this makes sense. It does not take into account the lip of the fender, just the outter edge.

yeah, makes perfect sense. Much thanks. Now, any chance of you being able to get the inner clearance measurements?

P.S. Check your PM's

If I can ever get home early enough from work, I'll try.
