i have 275/30-19 on 19x9.5s. If you were to order custom wheels, you might be able to go an inch more. Squeezing 305s or more will be tough!

go for it!!

275/30/20's

Have not seen wider. You might be able to fit 285's with just the right offset and rolled fenders but it would be very close! I tried 285's on mine and they were a no-go.

Yea same here i just got 275's in the Rear and im like i got to go Wider. Nothing like seeing a Viper pull up with thoses Sick *** wide tires.. It might just be me but whatever. And is it true that 245s are the bigest you can run in the front j/w. Also Any of you running lower then a 40 Profile in the front.. Last time i bought tires from Tire Rack, they would not sell me anything under 40 Profile in the front said it would mess with the (ABS or something ).
Thanks

You could prolly fit 295's on a 9.5 inch rims out back with conservative offsets and rolling the fenders.

I've got 245/35/20's up front with no problems. I think quite a few other guys do too.

255/40-18 with 35mm offset, no camber correction on 2" drop (I'll take all the free -camber I can get)

Tire to felder lip clearance


Same thing, but innner suspension upright clearance



265 in the front will also clear. 275 front is debateable, 30mm offset required to clear upright for sure.

You're not driving a Viper.

Or even a 350Z/Coupe.
275's are pretty big for a sedan that does not say "M5" on the back.
