Default What size wheels to suit classic with arch extensions?

I sourced a set of ABW arch extensions for my drag classic. I obviously need as wide a tyre as possible, and need to fill the wider arches once fitted.

What the size/offset to go for please guys?

I'm going for 18's but that's all I know for now.

Thanks mate, but I'm looking to run wider than 225.

Maybe, but that's never stopped me doing silly things in the past.

As things break, they get replaced with upgraded items.
