I understand the liability reasons but I almost feel like they should encourage it, as most of us in this thread have gone to tires that have tread width of 275+ which are much more expensive than oem sizes.
They should feel concerned about liability when people come in looking for a 225/xx/19 tire for their 350z...
why are you going to shops? just get them from tirerack.com
Because in my case buying in store mounting and balancing is included at price and usually end up being cheaper than tire rack discount tire and discount tire direct.
I concur, I think a 265 is still on the small side and a 285 on the rear is also kinda small
Very correct, but not to many people venture into anything bigger than a 255 front. 285 rear is pretty common , that why a wider front 265+ is needed to set them apart from common.
SR71.... Even though I know you are joking, it still irritates me...
Oh, I am officially going to a 315 when my rear tires wear out. I got my alignment much better. Had the car loaded down and didn't rub once, so lets slap some more tire in there and deal with this all over again!
295/35 R18 square. Nitto NT05 tires right now. Finding reasonably priced good tires for this that will stay planted but also last more than 7k miles is not fun, the Nittos are pretty well shot after one season.
Should roll with those specs, not worth the fender damage. Costly to repair, risk outweighs the cost. The fender distorts near the top where its very noticeable with just a few hits. All it takes is a hard dip or bump at the right speed to make it look like asz.

Advised, thanQ sir.
My tire guy did a pretty hard run, but Z1 included that in their price.
