I need m0ar low in the rear but I had plenty of clearance with 305's. I don't doubt I could stick 335's in there with the right wheels.

I'm currently on Hotchkis Spring with 19x9.5 +19 & 19x11 +34 WORK Meisters and running 255/35 & 285/35 BFG KDW. I'm waiting on delivery of HRE P43SC 19x9.5 +20 & 19x11 +25 and will be running R888 265/30 & 305/30's. Looking to get the KW V3 coilovers. JWT 700BB kit & built long block as well. Some suggested the 275's but the R888's run big. Hope this helps.
Thanks fellow service member.
Good to know the r888's run nice and meaty

Setups looking nice!!! I've spent a few hours going through this thread. Alot of info and it hurts my head lol. But I got it down to this,Tire setup I'm wanting to run is the widest with a good amount of sidewall. Im looking at drag radials or all out "track" tires. I'm still generalizing cause i need to spec a good wheel setup around the tires and will go custom if needed. My fenders front and rear are rolled, pulled and banged out so I'm comfortable in getting aggressive. I'm
thinking 335 or 315 on rears and either 285/275 on fronts. I don't want to run alot of camber, neg 1 to 1.5 max. So far I gather 18x11 rear and 18x10.5 for fronts. So maybe 30 offset for rear and 15 for the front will do?
*found some drag radials in 315&335/40-18 as well. I'm leaning towards this setup for the rear.

So I went to http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp and played with their calculator. (I was bored at work.) Here is what I came up with to compare 18" Touring V1 wheels versus my current 19" WORK Meisters S1 3pc versus my ordered 19" HRE P43SC's.
Specs:
OEM Touring V1:
F & R 18x8.0 +30
F 225/45 R 245/45
WORK Meisters S1:
F 19x9.5 +24 (5mm spacer netting +19 offset) 255/35 (*For calculations I used a +19 offset.)
R 19x11 +34 285/35
HRE P43SC:
F 19x9.5 +20 265/30
R 19x11 +25 305/30
OEM vs WORK's (Front)
Suspension Clearance: +4mm closer
Fender Clearance: +26mm closer
Wheelwell Clearance: Same
@60mph Speedo Reads: 60.2mph (+0.3%)
OEM vs HRE's (Front)
Sus Clearance: +10mm closer (Acceptable)
Fender Clearance: +30mm closer
Wheelwell Clearance: 100% (Even more room)
@60mph Speed Reads: 58.5mph (-2.5%)
WORK's vs HRE's (Front)
Suspension Clearance: +6mm closer
Fender Clearance: +4mm closer
Wheelwell Clearance: 100% (Even more room)
@60mph Speedo Reads: 58.4mph (-2.7%)
OEM vs WORK's (Rear)
Suspension Clearance: +24mm closer
Fender Clearance: +16mm closer
Wheelwell Clearance: +3mm (Filling up wheelwell)
@60mph Speedo Reads: 60.5mph (+0.8%)
OEM vs HRE's (Rear)
Suspension Clearance: +25mm closer
Fender Clearance: +35mm closer
Wheelwell Clearance: 100% (Even more room)
@60mph Speedo Reads: 59.1mph (-1.5%)
WORK's vs HRE's
