Does anyone run a 275 front tire? If so, are there any rub issues? And what size tire do you run on the rear?

I run 265 on the front with stock offset on a 9.3" X 20" wheel. Stock diameter, see my sig. It barely rubs the plastic fenderwell under worst-case full lock conditions.

That said, it is much too wide a tire for the stock wheel, it would ruin the handling characteristics.

The biggest I'd run on the front is 255.

Funny You brought this up because when I bought these wheels 5yrs ago for My MGM they were 275 all around and the car drove horrible! They didn't rub up front but taking turns wasn't easy. Too much tire to move.
