18x9 +28 18x10+38 Volk GT-7's
Fronts came with 225/35's which will go wider once they wear out
Rears are 275/35, wanted to run a 285 but BFG Drag Radials go 275 and right on to a 295. Didn't want to risk the 295 not fitting so just bought 275/35's again. My boss has a pair of GT-7's same size, same color with slightly higher offsets that I'm going to pick up and see if I can't squeeze that 295 under there.

Fenders are rolled, no pull whatsoever.

Regards,
Robert

So it sounds like those 295s shouldn't be a problem!
