Not sure what the largest size is with stock rims, but the alt closest to the original size (in terms of circumference) is 225/40/18. There are tons available at that size, and they're genereally cheaper due to the increased competition.

actually the closet to original circumference is 235/40/18 which is what I have on my STOCK wheels. That is the most I would push it though. I think Im going with 225/40/18 azenis rt615's for my next set of tires though.

Alright I have to say that out of the Four types of tires, i have had on the car ... Pirrelli, Nitto, and Khumo, and toyo, The toyo T1r is by far the best i can fully rev in first! With only minor spin... I love it,, went alittle fatter with the 225/40's but i am loving it the ss is out around the turns!! Lol it feels like when the pirrellis were brand new!
