Max tire stretch on 17 inch stock wheels
Dear CL members,
Just want to know what is the max rubber size I can fit on my stock 17 inch wheels without rubbing / rolling my fenders ? I want a staggered setup on my rear wheel drive 2010 IS 250/ 300.
Currently my car is riding on the below tire size.
Front : 225 / 45 / R17
Rear : 245 / 45 / R17
I remember someone telling me a long time back that I can go max as per below without any modification or problems, Someone please confirm this or can I go further above it.
Front : 235 / 45 / R17
Rear : 265 / 45 / R17
