widest front tire.
I know 255's will fit with no problem on my GS450h (07).
I currently have the stock 245's.
I know 265/275's will fit on the back, but I do'nt want to stag. SO, I wanted to know if 265's would be able to fit on fronts without rubbing at all.
I want the same all around.
What is the widest on a stock GS450h that will fit, if keeping with the same profile.
Also, what size tire starts sticking out the fender. I DONT WANT THAT>

245s on a 8 inch Rim Looks perfect.
255 on a 8 inch rim Looks terrible. they bubble out and seriously look like you couldn't afford the right size rim..like those civic corrolla guys.
...I know...I mounted 255s on 8 inch rims and we immediatle changed the at the Discount Tire Direct Shop. the tires I use are the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S. The oversized look made the tires, $324 each look like $54 Hankooks.

I agree. I decided to just upgrade to the PS2's with 245's 8 in.
To do 255's comfortably with it looking classy, you need 8.5 minimum.
I just wish I could just get a 19 in (of the stock wheel) that came with my 450h. You know the ones with the chrome insert in them?.... I like mine alot, just wish I had higher limits for wider tires. Oh well.
