Widest wheel and tires
It's about time to replace the rear tires already. So...
Just wondering who fitted the widest wheel and tires on the back?
Also, what kinda camber setting did you get if it's a custom alignment with the tire?
*personal experience only please, also, precise numbers please !

I just ordered Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 265/35/18 for rear.
And it's as wide as 275 (that was the disc tire guy said).
Is it possible to use 285 for rear, using the stock wheel??

I'm almost certain 275 would fit with little to maybe no rub at all. But i dont think 285 would fit without rubbing... I'm running 265 in the back and its almost rubbing in the inner spots...![word](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/werd.gif)
If anyone is running 275/285 on the back with stock wheels. Please post pics!

So no rubbing even lock to lock? All that tire fits under the fender wells with out sticking out? Is your car stock ride height, lowered or have the full performance package? I so the first pics you had but they were low res. I would like to see higher res pics from better angle that show the wheel figment.
