I was reading on the Meaty Tire Thread that people were running 275/305 easily. I may be wrong.

Completely stock sport package.
I want to fit. 255/45/19. 285/40/19. Will this be with no issue ? I want more tires all around and want the fat tire look .

Bad idea! thats a super tall tire for the 19's and if you ever lower it, you will rub like crazy on the liners. Even at stock height, im sure you will rub. A 255/40/19 and 285/35/19 would be recommended for you. Its still a taller sidewall then stock though but shouldnt cause issues. Either way 10mm wider won't make the tire look too much wider if even noticeable at all. Wheel widths themselves help give you a wider look or if you go atleast a 275 in front and a 295 in the rear.

I haven't been able to find this, so here goes...for multiple reasons I have to stay with the base 18" wheels and want as much rubber under the car as possible and don't want to have to fool with spacers. I'd like to install a tire like the Michelin Pilot, as wide (definitely) and/or tall as possible, and still maintain as much positive handling as possible. Am I asking too much, and should I just stay with stock size tires?

Okay, so I just bought some rims from another member.... Sizes 20x10 +35 and 20x11+35.... couple questions:
1) what, If any, spacers do I need to run? 2) what size tires should I put on the front and back that won't cause any rubbing issues with no fender modification? ( I'm going to drop it an inch or so on springs, and i'd like to run the widest possible tire that I can on the back) Thanks everyone in advance for your help. I'm far from an expert when it comes to wheel fitment.

You should have asked these questions before you bought them. Also I wouldnt run big spacers with the brand of wheel you bought. Good luck! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2 |

Looking for flush fitment, and the widest functional tires i can put on the front and back without modification to any fenders. The wheels are Varrstoens . . if that matters . . . .
