not really, depends on the tire brand

id do a 225/35 just because a stretched 30 series is not something id be comfortable driving on

well get some proper tires(i recommend generals, they run large but they take a hell of a beating) and if you are okay with doing a 30 go for it,

the front from what i lurked around looks like you can do a 35 series safely, no need for 30 but the rear can be a bit bigger of a tire, doesn't need to be stretched at all

hmm so 235/35? or 225/35?

rear is rubbing and preventing me from going lower.. what size should i do then?

only reason it seems like the rear is cool is because i have a 1" flare hahaha..

you can probably see it in these pics.. notice the rear isnt touching the tire on the outside.. but on the inner side of the fender its rubbing.. lol




the Invos dont stretch that nicely..

i was thinking General Exclaim UHPs or Hankook Evo12s

-2.5 up front
-3 rear camber
