Default Tires

Anybody know the "widest" size tire you can put on a RX330 without hurting performance?

Default without rubbing?

I'd like to know this as well. You really can't find anything other than the Michelin MXV4 S8, the Goodyear RS-A and the Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50 for the OEM 235/55R18 size. The only other size that comes close to the overall diameter of these tires is the Pirelli PZero System Asimmetrico 255/50R18. So I guess the question is: Will 255/50R18 fit without sticking out and without rubbing? If so, what wheel or rim width (probably 8") and what offset (I'm guessing +35 or less - maybe +30 or +32)?

Default Bently

That 255/50 is a tire for a Bently. It is a special order item and it will fit on anything between 7-9 inches. Not sure if it will fit on this truck, who wants to be the first to try?
