I was curious to what you guys are running as far as rim and tire combos go.. Initially I was thinking of going a staggered setup but Im not familiar enough with wheels to really do that. I did a lil researching and found that using a 18 in rim the closest I can get to stock tire size is using a 245/40/18, where my stock is a 225/50/16. Have any of you tried this setup? I dont want to rub or anything. I know the rims I was looking at were a +35mm offset. I am not sure what the offset of the stocks are.

Based on my research, these are the biggest tires that will fit:

235/35/19 25.5" RD (front)
275/30/19 25.6" RD (rear)

Stock rolling diameter is 24.8", so 25.5 and 25.6 is very close and should pose no major issues I don't think.

Tires are available from BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2, I'm looking for other manufacturers as well, and for rims to wrap them in.
