there should be a tyre placard on the drivers door, you can go 1 inch wider than whats written on the placard..

that is 5.5" so widest legal rim is 6.5 inch

Legally in WA you can only go 7" wide. Check out the Dept. of Planning and Infrastructure (Transport) website.

there may have been some 6 inch alloys from factory??? that means you could go 7 inch.

of course you can get wider rims engineered but that costs you.

also remember big wide wheels puts stress on the steering
components.
