i have 275 rear on my sc300 right now, run very good and have Tokico and tanabe spring.
Doesn't need spacer at all, fit perfect.

anyone use a 225/50/17 for the front? just curious since I have a set of those tires and I was curious if those would be reasonable size compared to a 235/45/17... I understand it may be alittle bit of stretch but not much... I am planning to run a 275/45/17 on the rear

factory recommends 235s on the front and 255s on the rear. I have this setup now (temporary for winter) and 275s are coming for track fun. 225s on the front would be hard to install and also be a tad tall IMO.

Nope. Never really took one. But I still have the wheels in my garage.

I'd recommend 275/40/17 in the rear as has been suggested.

235/45 Fronts.

255/40 Rears.

Pretty sure these are the OEM recommended sizing. I would have gone with 275's out back but saved about $100 by not doing so.
