Many have chosen 245/35 and 275/30 on the stock 08 wheel. Some have even done 285/30 without issue. Added traction, keeping the OD close to stock spec, and you'll gain more knowledge of how the car behaves with the right amount of rubber it finally has.

Welcome to the forums. Are you SoCal or NorCal?

Just remember if you lower it to get figs or RRracing LCA bushings to prevent inner tire wear.

Welcome to the board, and a powerful JDM car.

When I had stock wheels I was running 245/35/19 and 285/30/19. Some folks tried the combo and didn't like it. They worked well for me and for others:

Days ago. I like the combination so far with no issues.

Pardon my ignorance guys but even if I put 245/35 and 275/30, it can still sit on its original suspension ?

I have had those exact specs on my stock 08 rims (with stock suspension) for about a month now with no issues including one track day (Continental DWS06 which sucked on the track as expected but wanted them for snow too).
