I have done a lot of mesuring and think I have the right size rim and tier picked out, but wanted to know if any one has any thoughts?

rim: 17x9.5 w/ 5.5'' back spacing

tires: 275/40/17

vec is lower 1'' in the rear and 2'' in the front

Will this fit?...

Can i go bigger ?

perfect. No need for larger. If you need you can run a 285/40

Personally, on a car that big, I would go with an 18x9 front, and 18x10 rear. For a couple of reasons. The car size would dwarf 17's, and two, in 18's in teh sizes I've posted, you can go with the SoftLip style rim which will hide the valve stem behind the wheel spokes, and give you a deeper smoother looking wheel lip. Give us a call.
