Lot's of things to consider......daily driver?,autox? and driving conditions & habits.
On my DD 02Z,I run this....it's a common "run-of-the-mill" setup.

Pure street, and untubbed, I've found about the maximum size for a combo is 275-35/18, and 325-30/19, on 9.5" and 11" width rims. No rubbing, and looks great. I use Nitto Invo tires, and really like them.

How do like those tires? I was look at them like the tread pattern. This is for fair weather driving.

The Vreds are a great tire.I did lot's of research on this forum and folks who have them,really like them.
Very grippy in the dry and also a good rain tire..,.and reasonably priced if you shop carefully.They are getting popular so prices vary.
My set of (2)275/35/18 & (2)295/30/19 were $720 + $80 shippedfrom westcoast to eastcoast.
Do a search and you should see lot's of comments.
