Tire widths front and rear?
What size tire will fit on the factory rims in the front and rear without rubbing? Also, what is the widest tire/wheel combo we can go with on the front and the rear. Thanks in advance.

I'm using 18" Champion Motorsport RG18 wheels, with Michelin PS2 265/35 in front. I think these fronts are the same offset as the OE wheels, and I have no rubbing. I have DRM brake cooling ducts, and I think 275 would be very close.

i am running
255/35/19 on the front and 285/30/20 on the rear
i hear you can go as wide as 275 in the front and 305 in the rear but dont mess up your rolling radius
Alex is the man
I dont know where he has been lately though?
Here is a pic for you

I'm tired of seeing pix of those great Wheels & Tires in your garage. When you due for the install?
Alex took a trip to Double Secret probation land is my guess.
Either that or he's out forging his own wheels or the wife insisted he go back to work.
Where’s Alex?? The world wonders
