That all depends on various things.

Do you plan to run a larger diameter wheel?
What size tires?
What offset?

I wouldn't worry about wheel width because you'll run into issues on the other side in regards to fitting under your fenders before you really need to worry about the knuckle/upper balljoint unless you buy wheels that are super high offset.

I'm planning on going with 19x8.5 +35 all around and then tyres will be another story.
I was mainly hoping I wouldn't run into some problems and have that dig into a bigger wheel.

You wont have to worry about hitting that castle nut but you might need to roll the fenders.

What's your offset? I'm running 18x9.5 at 40mm on the rear of my '98 and I'm thinking about running the same up front. I'm also on coils. Fenders rolled?
