295/35 21
I'm guessing this has already been asked but I could not find the answer so I apologize.
Does anyone know whether this tire size will be ok (with no rubbing, etc.) on a stock wheel, no spacer, out back? I know the wheel is .5 inch too narrow for this tire, but I've done that before with other cars (also, I am thinking of doing the Michelin PS4 AS, which tend to run a tad narrow).
Was going to do 255/40 21 in front (which I know others have done with no issue).
Thank you.

As you said, tire manufacturers say it's two wide for a 9½" wheel. I run 295/35/21 on my 10½" Vossen wheels with an aggressive offset with no issues. I know you want to run All Seasons, but why not this tire:

It will work on a 9½" wheel.

I've always run at least one of our cars with dedicated winter tires, but global warming and all...we hardly get meaningful snow anymore.

not sure about stock on back and 255/40 on front, won't that be a smaller sidewall on the back than the front?
not sure i've seen a pic with 285/35 back and 255/40 on front (i.e., one size up), but i'd like to!
