305/45/22 no rub on 2019 G550?

Anyone here know if 305/45/22 will rub on a 2019 G550? All the posts I'm reading point towards yes, and the safe tire is 285/45/22.

That being said, I found two setups done by Wheels Boutique using 305/45/22:
https://wheelsboutique.com/gallery/m...us-monoblock-z (this is the exact wheel and offset I am getting)
https://wheelsboutique.com/gallery/m...-on-hre-p104sc

Thanks in advance.

my guess is that there will be some rubbing on full lock on the forward inner fender liner in the front. that being said i have a set of HRE p101SC in 22x10.5 with terra grappler g2's in 305/45/2022. they should get here end of next week and i can update whether or not there is any rubbing. the guy i bought them from had a g63 and he said there was NO rubbing.

that would be amazing.

If you don’t rub, I’m getting 305/45/22 as my offset should be similar to what HRE recommends.

what year/model do you have?

I have a 2022 G63. I purchased the HREs from another forum member who had them on his 2021 G63 and he did not have rubbing

I have the AMAZING Recon grappler in 305/45/22 on 22x10.5 wheel (offset i think 30) , and my car is lifted 50mm. The is a VERY minor rub at full lock. so little rubbing the you could barely hear it. I'm sure after few thousand miles it will disappear (after the tire wears out)

I ran Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 285/45/22's on my previous G and the front tires just cleared rubbing at full lock. Rear tires were fine of course.

Looks like 285/45/22 is 32.1" tire circumference and 305/45/22 is 32.8".

I would be very surprised if the 305's didn't rub without modifications. I mean the 285's cleared by millimeters.

What wheels did you use?

I might go with 285/45/22 to stay safe then - that size also has the tire I like (Falken Wildpeak A/T3W). I run them on two other cars and they are perfect for Midwest (no need to swap out winters/summers).

The 305/45/22 is nice though as more sidewall protection and more meaty look.

I used OEM 22 rims--I believe their offset is 36. Here's my post about them and a picture of how close it was to the plastic trim if you scroll down:

So what was the result of this, and what is the offset of those HRE's?
