Has anyone run wider than a 285 on the front? I am looking at trying from 295 up to 305. Currently I have 285 on 10 in, thinking of trying a 11 in and wider to get more grip out of the front.

 

If you have 285s right now I wanna see a pic, if not, bump for justic

 

It appears the widest I can go without major changes is the 295/30/18. It is just slightly larger than the 285, and I think I can get it to work, I am not sure about the 11 in wheel or if I stay 10 in if it will really be any wider.

To above poster, if you see the red car in the pic then you see a pic with a car already running 285's. I do not need to post pics of them since I am already running them as well as scott.

I was looking to see if anyone was aware of someone at any time running wider tires.

 

hah wow! 295 thats insane on a balt :P

 

i'm pretty sure you two are the only ones running tires anywhere near that wide at the moment... I'm still trying to figure out how to pull it off with a stock 5x110 hub...

 

Custom wheels.
Good body shop to allow stock fenders.

 

I'm a bit cheaper, I use 4 custom wheel adapters, 25mm thick, hub-centric on both sides, with a 5X110 pattern on the hub and a 5X114.3 (5x4.5") pattern on the wheel side. I run AMR Torque Thrust M 10" wide wheels with a +45mm offset. The wheel/tires clear on the inside by about 3/8". I use camber plates to the camber tire-strut clearance stays constant. I did have to make judicious use of a small hammer to bend ther inner wheel wells up a bit.

I've added a photo with 285s on the car.
