Exclamation Gs....tire size question????

WAS UP FELLAS....i HAVE A 1993 GS300 STOCK WITH STAGG 19S. 8FRONT 10 BACK. THE CAR CAME WITH 245/35/19 FRONT. BACK CAME WITH 275/30/19 BACK,LOOKS LIKE RIDING ON RUBBER BANDS. IM TRYING TO PROTECT THESE NICE RIMS FROM THESE MESSED UP STREETS. I WANT TO GO WITH BIGGER SIDEWALLS,BUT NOT SURE WHAT SIZE IS SAFE TO GET.....DONT WANT ANY RUBBING ISSUES. ANY SUGGESTIONS????...THANX

Use 45 since its normally safe. You may lose a lil bit of the response but its safer for the streets. I have 225/45/18 on mine.

I'd go 40... Look at the stock camaros running 45's, they don't look bad at all.

there's no way to tell you what size to get, cause we don't know your rim size and offsets, and how low you are.

if you put a 275 on my car, it rubs, solely cause of how low I am. some cars depending on the stance, you can put 285 or i've seen 305 on some GS's with no rubbing issues.

how about some pictures of your current set up
