First of all,
double post FTL... Why did you post this in both sections and bump somebody else's important post off the first page?
Secondly, nexxens are terrible.

if you are going to stagger them i would go 265/35/18s for the front 275 will mostly likely rub and they will stick out to far in the front. I have 265/35/18s all around as good tires are not cheap so I can rotate them. The 20 mm difference is not worth it imo.

That is what they recommend... What size wheels are you getting?? 18x9's?

You can run 245's on there if you wanted to.

I'm not going to be bouncing back and forth between your two threads. If you need more help from me then you can post in the 4.6 general section.
