Lord I'd hope everyone would know that's a stretched size, guess I just assumed it was common knowledge lol.

Well aware of the stretch that is required after reading some of the fitment threads. To keep the specs within the oem diameters,

I've decided to go with a 255/275 combo.

I've been running that with PSS for a while now on 2014 wheels. Works great for me.

Nice! I think I'm going to step my tires up to a 275 in the rear after I burn through these 265s, probably a 245 in the front as well. Assuming I can still tuck them on air, of course

19x10.5 +22

I'm also aware that I will need to roll/pull my fenders to make this setup a reality.

Any help is appreciated for whom have gone for aggressive setups.

I have this offset on the rims on my car. honestly i would never put such an aggressive offset but my car had them on when i bough it. The rims stick out pretty good lol. It looks cool, I'll give it that much, but you have to stretch the rears to get em to fit. The front do rub of a full locked turn fyi.

Going to hijack the thread, anybody running 8.5 +22 9.5 +22 lowered to like a finger gap? If so, how is the fitment? What size tires are you running?
