I am running 255/35/18 rear and 235/40/18 front w/H&R 1" lowering Sport springs. All on the factory wheels.........no issues and good part small amount more sidewall bulge, that helps protect factory wheels from curb rash!!

Nice. We have about the same width (10")

Hey guys, I've been crunching some numbers for my upcoming wheel set purchase. David from apex tested the rear fitment +58 offset with 9.5 width here

He said that a 275 wide profile tire may fit with special attention. I suspect a 275 with +50 offset on a 9 inch wide wheel would fit no problem due to the decrease in sectional width.

I also suspect that a 10" wide wheel running a 255/265 series tire would fit on the rear with approximately +50 offset at stock height.

I may go with the apex EC-7 as I like that fitment and look. I got all winter to think about it... I would really like to see someone get a 275 on this car

Tested:

255/35/18 Hankook RS3 | 18x9.5 ET50 | Stock Suspension
- No rub against strut cover or inner fender lining, though, it definitely is close. I'll post pics as soon as I get the chance
