While it's true offsets play a part in the equation but I don't think 275s is the limit we can go up front on sport wheels. I think you could go up to 285s if you wanted to by eliminating whatever negative cambers in our stock alignment.
i guess it depends on what you mean by limit. at some point you are talking about major sidewall bulge. either way your point stands, you might be able to squeeze the right 285s on there (put some jeff gordon stickers on your car while you´re at it).

Nah, I was just trying to say there is enough room under there to shove more meat. Obviously anyone is looking to go that wide would be doing it on a square set up for track duty. The 275s serves me well right now, but I agree it bulges quite a bit on 9 inches, 285s would look like riding on a blimp. Jeff Gordon would be damn proud! Lol
