Thanks! I'm running 235/30 up front and 275/30 in the rear. And you are right, they are V12s!

I guess I can officially join this group:

I'm thinking 235/30/20 and 265/30/20, or can I even do 245/30/20 and 275/30/20 without modification to the fender? I'm on BC Coils.

You can do either if your not gonna run spacers. Id do 235/30 & 275/30 given the offsets are +38 & +45.

Yup.. +38 and +42. I don't plan on running spacers. If I do, at most 5 or 8mm

I would recommend 235/30/20 F and 275/30/20 R or 225/30/20 F and 255/30/20 R for a stretched look

I would love to go for the 225/255 stretched look but I daily this thing through DC and know I will break something the first week. lol

Thanks!

Imo 225/255 would not look right unless your running a lower offset(spacer) and lower. Thats what I'm running btw. The 235/275 would fill in more space ie. Fender to tire. I took off my spacers the other day just to see how it would look and I really didnt like it with the stretched tire they looked too small, but with the spacers they look right with those widths.

245/275 will only work on springs drop...if u go any lower than 1 inch drop you will rub. I would say 235/30 265/30 for a descent drop. And of course for stretch look and maximum slamming 225/30 255 or 245/30 rear and if you want to be kool like me lol slap a 12mm spacer in back

+1
I'm running the exact same set up, very happy with the look and ride quality, hardly ever rub (only on extreme dips and even then, just barely rub)
