48 Bigger wheels question

This question for those running Volare front ends, and Ford explorer rear ends. Im looking at running a 20/18 wheel combo, or even a 19/17 and worried about offset and tire width.


Whats the widest tire you guys are running in the rear?
What offset is ideal for a 48 with explorer rear end?

You may want to repost using the information you are looking for as the question intro.




For example: Max tire size with Volare front and 8.8 rear.

Lots of people look at the title of the thread but don't open it to read the post. Title gets attention.
