I finally found the look I want!!! But I had to ask the PROS first .I ran across a 2000 M5 sitting on chrome at the lot. Sticker price was like whoa!! A mere 75,000 g's(lotto check).I can't get that , but what about those 275/35/zr18sssss.Tires that wide deserve respect!!!
Can a tire that wide fit on a MAX and not rub anywhere? I know you guys would know.?

It was either Turbo Mag or Sport Compact that ran 18x9 out back and I think 18x8 up front...Roll the rear and get the right offset and I think it will be fine. Not with a 275 though, I would go 255 on a 9 out back and 235 on an 8 up front.

i think that on the back you could put 275...but at the front it should be 235..cuz they'll rub...i don't know if 275 will fit on an 8 inch correctly but that's another problem

What kind of power do you have under your hood that makes you want to use such heavy power robbing tires? 4litres of Mobil1 Race proven???

Anyways, 235 35 19 on 19x9" rims looks best. The large rims made the tires look like they are 255.

You can fit a 255 easy but 265 might push it a 275 i would have to see to believe i don't see how that would fit without lots of cuting
