Default 2010 2011 ISF on stock wheels W/wider tires

Hi everyone,

I am looking for you out there on stock wheels (model year 2010/2011) on wider tires
235/35/19 & 275/30/19 or even 235/40/19 & 275/35/19 setup. Please post you photos.
I would like to see the difference the wider tires make vs. the stock size of 225/40/19 & 255/35/19.

Thank you for you time!

I have an older car than you are requesting, but 245/35/19 and 285/30/19 fit just fine and are a closer match to the stock OD than the sizes you mention.

Thank you Lou.
I am hoping to see the photo of the entire car. To get the view of the wider stance, fender gaps etc.

My F is pretty neutral, more so than with the stock setup. I also have an F-Sport rear sway bar. My rear stays planted with aggressive driving. I luv the way it handles.

The stance is really not all that different. Remember half the added tread width is toward the inside of the car. Visually from the sides, the tires do not have the slightly stretched look that the stock tires have. However, if you look straight on from the front or back the added width is readily apparent, hence the picts I posted. Fender gaps, not much different.

Zapa's got 245s front and 285s rear on stock 08-09 rims. He's at stock ride height, and hasn't had any fender work done. It looks good. I'm sure he has several pictures he can post when he see's this thread.
