Picked up a car this morning and took it to get some new shoes, tint, and some beat. Waiting on the wing to arrive.

Congratulations on your new car! Paint+Wheels+Tint combination look great.

What % film do you have on the windows?

Is the 265 the widest that you could put on without rubbing?

No. I have 275/30-19 on 550 cpe (should be same as 350) and its perfect. I know some people put 285/30-19, but offset has to be perfect. So I would say that 275 is the widest "safe" fitment.

Exactly why I did it. 255 was not enough to handle 550's tourque.

However, putting 275 on 350 would slow it down, so if I had 350, would use 265/30-19 or more likely stayed with stock size of 255/35-18(performance tire of course).
