Wider tires

I have SSR VF1 19x9.5 +25 front and 19x10.5 +22 rear, and I am running Bridgestone 760 front 245/35 and rear 275/35. I am really not happy with the set up because the wheels stick out in the front and rear. Thinking of running 255/35 front and 285/35 rear. I guess my question is would this work? Car is dropped with tein s tech's... Going with Bridgestone RE-11...

What do you mean they're sticking out? They can't be sticking out with those offsets....

Got pics?

The bead of the tire is not flushed on the rim itslef. So I'm thinking of going 255/35 front and 285/35 rear. Anyone running this setup? Do I have to roll the fenders?

he wants the tire itself even with the rim. You should get what your looking for with the 255 on the 9.5, and the 285 on the 10.5. you might need a slight fender roll in the rear if you want your camber close to spec since you're lowered with eibach camber kit.

Ah, I get it. You don't like poking. Yeah, you should be fine with that setup.

OP, these threads might change your perspective on sizes...
