I’m running 255/55s in the rear now, I wanna go to a bigger tire but I’m not sure on what is the biggest size that can be put on the stock wheel. Any suggestions?

265 is about as wide as I'd go, I also run 255's. You can squeeze a wider tire on and some have, but you start to run into safety issues.
If you have traction control and exceed 6% dia. Difference front to back, it will activate...can run a 285-50-18 depending on front size.

Many of us run 295/45’s on the rear with no traction control issues or any other issues on stock wheels. 255/45 is to short and imo would look funny. If you’re not going wider than stock why not just run the stock size?
No issues with a properly paired 295/45.
255-45-18 is fine for front tires and are wider than stock

I have continental cross contact UHP 285/50/18s on mine. In the rear only. Continental also lists our stock rims as an available minimum size to mount on.

I run the Nitto NT555. Decent tires. I prefer the Cooper summer performance tire but they don’t offer a 295/45.
I would NOT run 295's on a stock width wheel.
