Got any pictures?

I'm shopping for new tires currently, and I was told the first time around something about why 305/35/20 on the rear couldnt happen. * 285/35/20 front for reference*

If it is possible to run a stock 789M wheel with 305/35/20 and 285/35/20 i'll be SUPER pumped. Let me know!!

You can see the difference between oem size and the wider size is less than 1%. You will will be totally fine running it. I ran it for almost a year without an issue.

Per Michelin you can mount the 305 on 10" wide wheel.

Get pumped. 600 miles (aggressive driving some), no issues on stock wheel with those tires setup.

Sorry, don’t lots of pics of my cars usually. But this is a shot with 305/285 mounted. Rears sit basically flush, fronts still tucked a bit.

No rubbing in the fronts? This is much than spacers good to know.

285 | 35 | 20 w 15mm spacer : Front

305 | 35 | 20 w 5mm spacer: Rear

Looks amazing! Thinking about a similar setup.



Do you have to run the spacers, or would you be okay without them?

The stance the car has currently with the 5mm is perfect for me. The negative camber allow for the 305's to sit perfectly with my kw settings.

I removed the 12mm during install and drove around for a day or 2 before the 5mm arrived and I had a proper alignment done for all of the suspension parts and the new rubber fitment

I can confirm NO rubbing WITH NO SPACERS and the 305's mounted.

Once any spacer is added, forget it. Time to start adjusting everything else

I'm still at stock height, so will likely end up removing my spacers (to avoid rubbing).

You may not experience much- depending on how many mm spacer you're running. Time consuming to say the least but worth it in the end
