best size is 245/35 front and 255/40 rears.

you will not have any rubbing issues whats so ever. even if you lower your car your tires will still be tucked in.

il got 15/20 mm spacers lowered and im still not rubbing

^^^that would work, but will require you to roll your fenders.


i think 30mm is just way to much i say 25mm max. From what i learned 25mm will also require you to roll your fenders. this is for 245/55 tires sizes.

30mm would work if you hav oem sizes, prob wont need to roll fenders then.

what i have is 245/55 lowered on Z H-techs along with 15/20 mm spacers

no rubbing whats so ever. i been thinking about 20/25 spacers but not quite sure yet.

right now my wheels are slightly tucked but nothing to complain about. if i were to lower my rear another inch i woul def rub.

the wheel stance is aggessive but not aftermarket wheel agressive. (hard to explain)

some of you guys should post up pics of your "aggressive OEM wheel fitment".

i would love to see some pics of your set up LightsOut.

or anybody with Redlude's mentioned setup (245/35/19 255/40/19 and 30mm spacers all around.)

No one I know of is actually running that setup. Most people who stick with the OEM wheels don't really understand what aggressive is, and aren't willing to put in the effort to make it work.

going to aggressive on oem wheels will look akward. Wheels are not wide enough to get that aftermarket wheel look.
