Need new tires so why not...

I currently have some Volks w/ +22 offset riding on TEIN S-Tech. Would it be okay if I go 285/35 or 295/30? Is anyone currently running a similiar setup? I want the wide tires in the back and its not for performance since my car is mostly stock anyways. Just love wide tires =)

you may clear a 285/35/19 without a roll, but I'm pretty sure a 295 is going to rub. AHero has 285s, and I'm pretty sure he had to have his fenders shaved to clear his +22's

Since your wheel is only 9.5" in the back, don't go any wider than 285, thats the maximum recommend width for a 9.5" rim
