Default Wheel/Tire Help

hey everyone, I've been in the market for 19" or most likely 18" Work VS XX rims for a while and haven't had much luck. Here's my situation, I would love to get the maximum lip in the rear because that's what looks the best, but I also have some problems. I live in an area that get's pretty bad with potholes at times so during the winter I'm most likely going to switch back to my stock rims/tires. So
1. if i roll my fenders, will it look really bad when I put my stocks back on for the winter??
2.what's the maximum lip i can get without rolling?
3.is there a good place that you know of that I can get a wheels and tire package?
4. i don't want really thin low profile tires so what tire size do you suggest.
-----basically I'm looking for any help anyone is willing to give me. i'm desperate

thanks,

Steve

If you plus sized correctly no matter with 18s or 19s your gap is still going to be the same with or without your aftermarket wheels. The only thing that's going to change is the amount of wheel or amount of tire. Also, "lipage" is going to be determined by the amount of negative offset that you have. I would say with a car lowered +22 for a 10.5" rear wheel is about as close as you want without worrying about clearance. BTW the answers to all your questions are all over this forum.

believe me, i've searched. i've seen the maximum lip thread but most of those people have had their fenders rolled to get more of an offset. and i've looked for a someone or a place to get a wheel/tire package and haven't found one. thanks for the help tho
