I'd go with a 255 FR. 285 RR. I did on mine and am glad I did. I don't like the stretched look the 275 rears get. With those offsets, I'm pretty sure you'll have to roll/cut the rear fenders anyway, so might as well put some more meat on those babies! Congrats on your purchase also.

Perfect color and offset (lip in the front is essential). Your the man.

Thanks man. It's taken me a while to finally get stuff done to her. After the audio upgrade, I'm finally going to start working on some body mods.

Sick wheels .......def go with 285. From a guy with 275's I can't wait to burn these up so I can switch, too stretched for my tastes.

Not the best pics to show the 285/35 rear but here you go.





275 is definate a stretch. It works for some though. Also it depends on the tire brand.

thanks for the pics...yah i see a lot of guys are changing from the 275 to the 285. But, i'm going to have a 1" drop and with the +12 offset i'll probably rub bad? I dont know, tough decision cause some tire brands are wider than others. example: Toyos are not as wide as Michelin and BFG. Not sure how those brands would look in 245 and 275. But again, I like the way your cars look thanks for the pics just rubbing is my issue, the roads in my area are pretty ****.

You'll def need to roll your fenders. I'd opt for 255/285

With those offsets, I don't think your rubbing issues are going to change based on 275 or 285. But I'm not a tire/wheel guru either.

Nice Wheels!! They will look great. I just got new volk wheels as well and put 255s in front and 285s in rear. I have a slight tire rub in the rear so I will be rolling my fenders this weekend. Got a fender rolling tool yesterday to do the job right.
