245 max MIGHT work, but 255 or 265 I doubt it. Just roll your fenders.

I was talking to the guys at wheeldude.com and they said a 255/35 will fit on my car with those rims. |

lol according to the answers ive been getting in this thread there is no way to go wider ( wheel and tire) without doing a roll/pull...there has to be someone on here thats running a different wheel/tire setup on stock!

i wanted to go wider to a 255 which is 9mm wider than the 245 according to tire racks chart ....so if i take the stock offset and subtract the tire width (which should be half of 9mm for both sides) and then add the offset of the grids(44) (55-44+4.5=6.5) so from what i got from this it will be 6.5mm further out than stock and i thought i read somewhere that there is 9mm to play with between the stock rim/tire and the fender. but if i run grids i have to run 5mm spacers in the front right? |

Also you have more fender clearance In the front over the rear. I would go with a 245 still looks square with just a bit of stretch to help with rubbing

I'm sure this has been covered but there is 103 pages to filter through. Looking to go 18x8 +48. 235/40/18 on a stock suspension 2011 wax sedan will the 5mm lower offset on the same width rim have adverse effects? Fender rolling?

a 255 really belongs on a 9" wheel.
