Anyone running 275's in the rear??

Looking at going to 275 in the rear and 245 in the front of my Sedan -- anyone else done this? Any rubbing problems??
I remember a couple of other sedan owners did this but I couldn't find out who in my recent search.

BTW looking for input from those people with 18" wheels -- Your input is appreciated!!

I'm currently running that set up. No rubbing issues at all, as long as you have the proper offsets, you should be cool

You won't rub is you obey the offset rules.

Front: 8.5" on 38mm
Rear: 9.5" on 45mm MINIMUM up to 55mm

Keep your front to rear rolling diameters as close as possible.

255 can be run in the front on a 8.5" rim with a 38mm offset

Looks good. Is your aero kit original, or did you put it on? Nice car.

Thanx, I recently dropped it even more. I'll say 2 inches front and 1.75 rear. I have the Tein Coilovers.

Beautiful wheels! That is just the look I would like as far as wheel/tire size and stance goes. Very nice.

Oh, what aspect ratio and offset are you running?
