Default Which size wheels for a '91?

I'm looking for a set of 16" or 17" wheels for autocross. What size will fit, and what backspacing should I look for? What is the widest without interference?

I did a quick search, and didn't come back with much.

TIA

No wider than 7.5, you'll rub with 7.5, but you'll be fine.

I would recommend 16x7 42+mm, 4x100.

Haha yeah I have 18s on my teg... KILLS power massively. I'm probably going to go with some 16" slips and keep the 18s for shows - that's all they're good for.

Thanks for the replies. I'll check into some 15" or 16" wheels. They will be for auto x only.
