I think they will fit with 235/35's or 245/35's up front and 255/35's to 265/35's in the rear. You might have to go down to 30's though but they will be like rubber bands. You will lose performance and ride comfort. I guess it depends on your vehicles usage and the tire manufacturer. There are wheel fitment guides all over the net to help like www.tyrestretch.com. If you're a daily driver, the ride will be rough as hell and you will most likely get a sidewall leak from a few rough pot holes. When a side wall leaks, it pretty much sucks as I've encountered and will probably keep happening. I'm pretty done with stretch/aggressive fitments for a while and prefer more rubber. F1 car technology requires thicker tires for performance and believe me, those teams know what they're doing If you lose too much air pressure from a side wall leak, this will happen to you on the highway as it happened to me once...

Holy **** lol I had no idea it would be that bad. I knew tire stretching was bad but not that bad lol. And by the way, yes, my SC is my daily driver. So not sure if tire stretching is a good idea? I don't mind a rough ride, but not something too rough lol. I guess maybe a slight tire stretch could be okay but nothing crazy right?
