I'm looking to get new tires all around was wondering if anyone has put bigger tires on the stock wheel? Stock is 285 can I fit a 295 or 300 on the rear?

Ok. Dont bother too much. Was just curious. I thought the front may look a touch less 'stretched' over the rim as it kind of does with the 225. I also used to like the look of my wide 295's on the r8. Made the rear look 'fat'
Talking purely looks but would also enjoy the extra grip. I know mac particularly designed with these sizes so the car was fun and did slide around a bit.

Just installed the bigger Sport 4S tires and spacers. Front: 235/35/19 with 12mm spacers. Rear: 295/35/20 with 15mm spacers. Much more aggressive than stock. Because of taller side wall especially on rear, the fender gap is reduced and car looks lowered. Perfect!
