What are the biggest rims i can put on a 2010 Vibe GTThe limit is the tire radius... as long as you keep the wheel offsets close to OEM ranges... between +39 to around +45. A really low profile tire serves up some small problems, like a rougher ride, and less space between wheel rim and the road surfaces. What size wheel are you aiming at?And by the way, welcome to genvibe!

20s will probably require a really low profile tire, like a 235/30-20. And that size tire is gonna be fairly expensive. You can do it, but if you go anywhere near a pot hole, it's likely that you will bend a rim. As insurance, you could buy a couple of spare rims, just in case. I would spend a little time thinking about making that kind of a purchase. Pretty big $$ involved.

20" rims will fit, depending on the offset

My Godfather owns a tire shop that sells rims, so I'm getting those rims for $650 with tire. Painting the caliper red with the nice red strip on the rim... I think it's going to look Sexay! Thanks for all the comments guys, Really appreciate it.

Is that for the whole set or just per rim/tire?

Why only get the rim when you could get the whole wheel!J/k - I really like the set you linked too. Very similar to the Tenzo Mach 10's I have on mine (of course the set you chose is 5 spoke and mine are 10 spoke).
