Need help Please

I was wondering what the maximum offset on a 05 Mazda 6 is? Also what tire size would be recommended on a 17 inch wheel with a 38mm offset or would this even work at all?

The OE is +60mm. Stay as close as you can to it... say... +48mm or better?

No, not recommended. Everything in handling performance is adversely affected by improper wheel offset.

Then, there's the rubbing fenderwell issue. 6's do not have a lot of room to play with.
