Largest rear tires you can fit on SLS

Hi guys,

whats the largest rear tire you can fit on the SLS without running into rubbing issues. (Are there any other issues if the rolling diameter difference is too large from stock) Anyone tracking these cars? What are you putting on the rears for maximum traction.
Many thanks
Adam

I think 305 is as large as you can go on stock. I have seen it on one stock SLS.. Im sure after market wheels you might be able to go up a bit but not much more than 315 or they will stick out and that would look horrible... Check with @sam.amg on Instagram on the 305's on stock wheels. I believe he has them.

And remember a sticker compound will always work better than just a wider tire...
