Look for a minimum of 45 series sidewalls or taller. I think there are a couple of manufacturers that make 'tallish' 18's. a 245/45 would be a decent size front & 285/50 or 295/45 out back would fill up the ol' wheelwells. Up front, 8 " & out back 9.5"s, both w/about 5" bspacing.
To be exact, you need to do the dirtywork & take your own measurements from your application. If you have stock wheels that fit, you can add to b.spcace w/some styrafoam(sp?) or wood to check interference.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
