Beat to death but 275/35 too big for stock rims?
Wanting a wider tire that is close to OEM sidewall heights that will look ok with my H&R springs. Want the 265/40's but the Super Sports are sold out for a good while. If anyone can chime in Id appreciate it. Not opposed to OEM size, just wanted a meaner stance from the rear.

12-15mm spacers with stock wheels looks pretty great too.

I just bought 275/35 super sports for my car 2 weeks ago. It looks great! I regret not trying 285 first as discount tire would have swapped them out right away if there were any issues.

Never thought of that. Stock wheels, spacers and OEM tire size for the rear?

Yes. You'll probably want spacers even with wider tires, but less aggressive obviously.

15mm or 12 mm recommended for rear? I have H&R springs now and want to make sure I dont rub. Thanks! Will stay with OEM tire size. Ill get my tape measure out and check this weekend to see.

I had 12mm for awhile but felt maybe I could have done 15mm. I'm a little OCD about squeaking out a few more mm No pics unfortunately.

Were you lowered then? OEM tires I presume also? Also OCD as you can probably tell...

Yes OEM tires. Mine was stock height but H&R lowering doesn't make much difference. You're definitely safe with 12mm and I would gamble on 15mm.
If it helps, I'm on H&R springs now, 19x9.5 ET20 275/30 with no rub.
