Noob needs advice

Hey everyone, sorry if there is already an answer but i am buying a 88 vert and want to upgrade the wheels to 18x8 or so, is there any rubbing issues with that setup or, maybe just the biggest you can go with little or no modification.

Thanks

Hi, I'm new too so sorry if I'm wrong. I had 04 acura TL wheels on mine at one point and they were either 18x8 or 17x8, and there were no problems except the speed was off by almost 10 mph. I don't exactly know if the vert's weight will effect it much b/c I don't have one. Hope this helps a bit .
