- Rear fenders are rolled and very slightly pulled

Love the way these 305's hook up, and they only weigh 1lb more than the 273/35/29 setup I had previously. go figure.. Oh, and the rin protector sticks WAY out :-)

When my front 255/35's wear out, I'll go with 275/30's.

Thanks Scott for helping me understand what will fit!

I took some pics in direct, low sunlight so you can actually see the meats.





your car looks good man! seems though you had a few typos in the post though lol

The roll gives you another 7-10 MM of clearance and the pull is just near the rear of the fender flare near the lower bumper where these cars typically rub. The pull is almost imperceptable.

Otherwise, there's a good chance you'll be rubbing with a 305/30 on a 19x10.5 (+22). I was already rubbing with a 285/35. I should have no rubbing even when I get around to lowering the car.

Need some advice on tire size for my current setup. Thinking about running a 255/35 on my 18x9.5 +7 and 295/30 on a 18x11 +7. Question is will the tires match up and look similar in fitment to the outer lip of the wheel? I don't want one showing more lip than the other.

335 rears on 18x12.5s, 315 fronts on 18x11s. Awesome, I should have bought that set-up when he had it up.
