you would only have to stray from the +46 measurement if the rims were very wide. our wheels wells are actually pretty big as is the clearance to our suspension. 7.5" +45 sits right in the middle of clearance from the rear fender and the suspension. if you go over 7mm offset in either direction from +46 (stock) w/ this width you will be in danger of rubbing. also if you go wider than 7.5, you will need to have an offset that would be more negative than +46 to push the rim away from the centerline of the car and the suspension to maintain clearance which would probably make you rub your fenders (you would have to roll them to get more clearance). since our stock rim is very undersized, you do not necessarily have to change offset from +46 if you want a rim wider than 6"... within reason of course. a 9" rim will not fit easily no matter what offest it is.
