no, 12"x6" wheels will not fit without body mods, you would need to cut the wings to get them to fit.

no the wides you can fit are 5.5" and thats providing your suspension is in top condition i.e. not sagging etc.. The arch has to cover the tread when viewing from above, so it can stick out abit also depends on tyre choice. The bearing won't wear out any quicker with spacers than they would with 13x7" wheels. Id personally go for the narrowest wheels you can get away with the wider you go the worse the handling becomes without spending more money.
