Larger than 5mm and you need new lugs. You need like 7 threads of grip on the bolts.

To each his own, certainly, but I like 10mm all around on my 2012. You'll love the look!

I agree. Over 12mm and many stock wheels and tire sizes start to have rubbing. I have 15mm and my rear right rubs when I go over bumps that cause longer suspension travel.
