I know it's in a different class, but the Audi S8 comes stock with 265/35/20 all around so that's why I was wondering if we could do that on the 3GS.

The 3GS is really small in comparison to the Audi so its in a totally different field in tire sizing. I have had absolutely no rubbing when I build wheels for 245/30-20 and some slight plastic touching (not rubbing) with 245/35-20 so I'm sure you see where the trend is headed. 275/35-20 would be like a rub a dub fest! lol

the a8 is larger and the overall diameter stock is larger. go take a look at the wheels for ls460, those are much bigger
