My friend and I were both running 305/30's on the sport rays, he had ps2's i believe and i have re11's, his did bulge and mine had no bulge. The minimum side recommended for a 305 tire is a 10.5 inch wheel. So the .5 isnt too far of a stretch to make it fit. There is no way in the world I would attempt anything bigger on my wheel though. Even if someone could mount it... that being said the same goes for the 325 on a 10.5 inch wheel. Trying to get it on a wheel thats an inch narrower than the minimum recommended size... I wouldnt chance it OP, it could become a big safety issue just my .02 though. The 305 looks great on the nismo wheels IMO
I understand what you're saying, but I want to see the look the 325s will give the car. I went to Discount Tire again today and ordered a pair of rs3s 325/30/19. The manager looked it up by car in the system for both the sport package and nismo, and to my surprise, 325/30/19s were an optional size for both. He said he's positive they'll fit because if it's in their system then it would definately work because they use it everyday and blah blah blah...but nevertheless, if they end up not fitting I can just get my money back and buy 305s
