Widest wheel set up? (coupe)

What has been the widest wheels you guys have experimented with? Just curious because I know for some , the current wheels are way to thin.

19x8.5 +34 for front which is "have an inner rim which is 13.7mm closer to the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 11.7mm more than before."

19x9.5 +50 for rear which is "have an inner rim which is 13.7mm closer to the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 11.7mm more than before."

3-5mm spacer is a MUST!

Have you tried to fit anything bigger on the rear and the front?

Is you car lowered? If so, what springs did you use?

In the front you can't go wider than 8.5" / 225. In the rear may be you can fit 275.

Great setup, are you running any spacers in the rear? What spacer size are you running in the front?

This is not true. You can fit more than this. I have seen 295's on the rear and I have seen 235's on 8.5 in the front. There is certainly a bit more than that if you want to put in the work.

Will 245 tires fit on a 19x8.5 ET 47 wheel without clearance issues w/20mm spacers in front?
I’m lowered on H&R springs currently on stock 225 tires want to upsize. I’ve noticed 235 fits but I want to stick to Continental DWS06 tires which don’t come in 235
