Still have my "old" tires in the garage, 275/35/19 and 245/35/19. But as far as I can see they're not fat enogh. How wide can you go on an aprox 2" lower z?
255/35/19 - 285/35/19

265/30/19 - 295/30/19

I have about that much of a drop... I run 255/285... There is a member here running 265/295 and it looks good...

Hope that helps...

I personally run 255/285 as well and think I have less of a drop w/ Hotchkis springs. I had to modify my rear fender to make it work w/ the BFG, but when I was running Continental ContiSports I had no rubbing issues.

BTW, car looks great dirty.

Yup yup if you're running PS2's or T1R's I suggest you go with 255/35/19 and 285/35/19. I'm running exactly that setup on the T1R's and it looks much better than 245/35/19&275/35/19. For T1R's you have to AT LEAST go with 255 on the front PERIOD. 245 looks just retarded.

I'm running T1R's on my TE37's (19x9.5+22 and 19x10.5+22) and I'm running 275/30/19 up front and 285/35/19 in back. I needed to just barely roll the rear fenders to keep it from rubbing due to the drop, but it wasn't bad at all. Fronts clear with plenty of room. Next time around I'll probably go with a 275/35/19 up front too, though i'll probably have to play with the coil-overs a bit to keep it from rubbing the top of the fender liner.
