Wheel specs for widest possible rear tire

What would be the widest possible rear wheel/tire combo specs that fit without rubbing to stock body. I've heard that some guys run 11 wide 19s with 305 rubber on them but what ET would one need to have? Is anyone running wider than 11 in the back? Ideally i would want to have 19s as this would allow me to use Michelin PS4S (they dont make them smaller).
