I picked up a 2013 GT/CS last weekend (LOVE the car), but would really like to throw on some wider tires when it comes time to replace the current ones. Right now it has 245/45/19, but I'd really prefer something a little wider like 265 or 275.
Does anyone have any idea or experience with 8.5" wide wheels? And should it be 35, 40, or 45?
My previous wheels (18x9" FR500's) worked fine with 285/35, even tho I usually ran 265/35 and 275/35. I just figured with as narrow as the 265's looked on a 9" wide wheel, they *should* work fine on an 8.5" wide wheel.
I did use the search feature, but the thread I found never had an answer.
