Give them time...they do.

15s if you want to drag race. 17s (do they make them in 17 yet?) for street/pro-touring because they just look good. 4" BS is right.

Don't know how much to add to BS for 12 bolt though. Depends on year.

I'm thinking with the wider 12 bolt in there, you're more than likely going to have to go with a wheel that has more backspace. Just try to figure out how much wider the 12 bolt is compared to the stock 10 bolt.

As far as tire size is concerned. I think 16's would be cool on there. Just keep in mind, every size increase is that much more in the cost of the tire.
TT D's would look cool on there...evn the TT originals with the light gray spokes..

id go 17s, more tires sizes and cheaper too.

Actually, 17's would look better on there, and would also be my choice.
