B-Street Max Tire Stock Wheel

I'm looking to put the biggest tire I can on the stock wheels. I want to run RE71R's, and I have 4x 305/30/19 with 7 runs from my Cam-C '18 Mustang. It seems people are getting these on the stock rear wheels. I'm going to run 265/35/19 on the front. From my research the 275 will rub, and I will daily drive this setup also so that won't work.

Does anyone have firsthand experience running this setup?

I plan on doing some PPF film to protect against the rocks they will surely kick up.

There was an M2 at an NNJR event this weekend with the 265/305 combo and a Dinan front bar. Apparently they still rub occasionally, but nothing approaching tearing liners out.

S2000s had similar issues back in the B Stock days.

You can run spacers if you want as long as you don't exceed the maximum offset differential allowance (+/- 7mm).

I run 275/35-18 RE-71r square on stock-width Apex EC-7s, and the setup works pretty well. Having a 305/30-19 out back would be nice, and you can mix 18- and 19-inch wheels and still be legal with the +/- 1" diameter rule. If Apex made an EC-7 in 19" with the right offset, I'd be all over that, but my OCD won't get along well with having a different model of wheel front vs. rear :-P

Are you running any front negative camber? Do you get much tire bulge with a 275 on a 9" rim? Thanks for the insight!

All stock, no camber plates. The 275s on the 9” rim have only a very slight bulge. I have pics posted in another thread in this sub-forum if you want to see what they look like.

Cheers

Have you run those tire sizes yet?
