I ran a 265/40 on stock 18" lobster claw wheels.

I am lowered on f sport springs and I didn't rub at all.

Can't speak to your tire size but its close anyway.

they were stock size up front - 225/40 on 18's

The fronts were michelin pilot sports and the rears were Falkens

When i bought the car buddy wouldn't let me leave with the rear tires it had as they were worn out.. he said $400 for new tires so I said sure put whatever on there fully knowing that I was goin to buy my own rims and tires anyways

I don't even know what kind of Falkens lol but for $200 a tire they couldnt have been very good

just for random facts. A person could fit a 295/30/19 with a min 10'' at the rear. You would keep overall tire diamter at 26'' and keep the stock gearing intact.Cl Member koz stated this.
