I test fited my 19x9.5 +17 on rear and it will fit with some camber. anything more agressive would take a lot more work.

Thanks Timmah , What tire size do you have ? Did they stick out a lot? I think with 22mm I would need less work ?

Another member had 19x9.5 40mm offset in the rear and he experienced rubbing when he had full load.

I also saw others put 19x10 or 20" with no issues.

I would buy wheels and tires first before you put springs on your car. See how they fit few people are having rubbing issues riding on the stock suspension.

I'm going to lower the car and try the wheels to see how much they poke out . It's going to be aggressive but I think I can make them work .

you think it will fit by stretching ? I'm going to stretch the tires anyways because that how I had them on my 2is. My biggest concern is that I don't want it to be poking out to the point that it look like a frog
