Does anyone know for a fact the widest tires in 19 inch that fit both front and rear while maintaining the 26.3 inch diameter of the stock 215-55-17? Tirerack.com Says 225/40/19 F, 255/35/19 R but no manufacturer makes both sizes.

 

255's will barely fit..

The largest so far was 245/35/19..I think tat was it...
I haven't seen anyone try the 255s yet...

 

You can fit 275's in the rear if you choose the correct offset wheels. Volk goes with 245/35R19's front and 275/35R19 rear or in 18's 245/40R18 ft and 275/40R18 rear. The offset is+22mm on both and 8.5 is for front and 9.5 width for rear. here's a pic alhough bear in mind this car was dramatically lowered and is a 350Z. The sizing should still apply. You're going to have to copy and paste since this board wont' let me post pics.
