    im running a 15x8 in the rear with a 275/60-15. they needed to be the exact right off set and i had to roll the fender lips. on the front i run skinnys so i cant help you there. for suspension you can put pretty much any of the stuff for 60s mustangs on the mav. there are lots of companys with different suspension products.

    yep, like PST I think its performance suspension technology or something like that, thats where i got my polygraphite bushings and springs etc...

    do a search on here for wheel width and what not... lots of posts!

    a few people are running __ x7's on front (i.e. - 17x7's)
    and you can get a 10" in the back, if the fender lip is rolled, assuming the exact backspacing and offset. most with a stock height Maverick can run a 8" wide tire with no problems or fender rubbing.

    Mavman has some nice wheels, check his site out, or look him up, he has been through enough sets to post them on his site.
