its a 73 super beetle with stock fenders

if u have stock springs and struts u wont get anything wider than 6" under there anyway and even thats pushing the limits
once u get narrower springs u can go wider tho
i had 185x65 tyres on stock 4.5 rims dropped 5" with no rubbing but thos tyres should have really been on a 6" rim
all depends mainly on the offset of the chosen rims

hope that helps
