I am thinking of buying some custom wheels in 18" and would like to know what the tallest tire that would fit on a 69 charger without worrying about rubbing. Also what would be the best offset?
Im thinking 18x10 for the rear with 5" offset and 18x8 with 4.5" offset.
Due to a few back surgeries I want a smooter ride with the taller tires.

I'm sure a 29" tall tire will fit  :yesnod:, I'm using a 28" tall, 15" rim, 10" wide but I'm using a 5 1/2" back space on the rear and I still a little more clearance in the wheel well.

Im running 18x8 up front with 4.75" backspace with a 245/40 tire and 18x10 with 5.5" with a 285/40. With no rubbing or fitment issues.
