I don't know the size at which they rub. That has a lot to do with the off set I think. 255 is the max for 8". A lot of people with the stock GT 17x8" run NITTO 555 255/50-17. So in short a 255 is the largest and has been done a lot around here. Again NITTO's site in the link I provided concurs with that.
