I run 17X9 +45's with 235/40's and run a 3mm spacer in the back. I think the car looks perfect. I will probably step up to 245/40's next but with the 235's on the 9" wide I can get her side ways for some decent power slides on the odd occasion.

Cool story. Tell me more....

Federals run wide. They're nearly 235mm in width. I have almost no stretch at all. Thanks.

OP wanted to know how wide a tire he could run while still being able to get sideways.

I was only posting to let him know it's still possible, even with a 265.

Fat chicks give the best head, because they're hungry.

For getting sideways that depends on your tyre choice, but NA on these with a decent but not too grippy tyre you can get the ass out easy.

This is a beauty! Guessing your suspension is lowered?

Dropped 35mm at the front and 25mm at the rear in that picture, I still need to even the drop up but the HID auto leveler needed to be fixed first before i could go further on the rear.

Due to Australian laws we don't have manual HID level adjustment on our cars, auto or nothing.
