Official Aggressive Wheels & Fat Tires Thread
What where you using before? When I went from stock 245/45/18 to 295/30/19 I felt an improvement in power. My wheels where a few lbs lighter (as well as the tires by a lb), but it was probably change in final drive that was the real contributing factor.
Do you have a side or angled view of that setup? Curious to see how it fits.

Anything lower than an inch, it will raise issues without camber adjustment.
I'll try to get some angle shots on here.

Can't agree more. The "hellaflush" look, looks hellabroken. Not to mention, I can't help but laugh when I see the skinny 235 rears some of them run. It's a sports car, not Vdub. Come the day we see 911 turbos doing the same thing.
The front wheel is 19x9 +15 so I am thinking for it I will do 255/35.
Would 255/35 be ok with a 295/30 rear? Will the sidewalls look odd taller in the front and shorter in the rear or no differences at all?

I like a 265 on a 9. Some guys even run a 275, but for the commoner, I think 265 is perfect. I'd couple that with a 295/35 rear, or a "wider" 285, like the Hankook RS3.
Just run a 265/30 up front, not thing less than 275/30 would be most ideal for handling.
So 265/30-19 front and 295/30-19 rear?
or
265/35-19 front 295/35-19 rear?
I have a base model so no vdc to throw off and looking into Nitto INVO tires.

I would try to look at what 265 front looks on most 9 inch wheels. I have 265 on a 9.5 on my front, and it fits great. Different tire brands fit differently. I have michelin pilots, and 265 on 9.5 looks pretty flush with the rim. I can only imagine a 255 would look the same on a 9 inch rim. I don't know if I would do a 295/35 rear, it would look pretty beefy. If you like that look go for it. 30 or 35 side wall will end up to be a visual preference in the end.
I'm honestly thinking 255/35 on the front 9in wide wheel and 295/30 on the rear 10.5
Those sizes come in the Nitto INVO's I am looking at. Also the other tire sizes I was looking at was 255/35 front and 285/35 rear. I hear the INVO's run wide so if that's true the 285/35 will be enough.
Tire sizes kill me!! I am wanting flush and fat tire's...
