18x9.5 +22 - Widest tire?

What will be the widest tire i can go with without major rubbing? I am on Megan Streets. Wheels will be TE37 18x9.5 +22. I have seen same wheels but most of them go with 245/40...

Pretty sure you could fit a 255 with some rolling/cutting in the rears. 265's could fit depending if you want to start flairing your rear. Fronts you should be good on clearence.

going to be a ***** buddy they are to tall, they will be tougher then 265/35s. what wheels did you get? Your turning out to be the vegas wheel whore.
I really liked your SSRs I think I am going to get them in the +28 offset after this season of track days.
BTW how do you like the megan CO's? my buddy is picking up a evo and he wants to get them, but I am a track rat and stand by KWs/Ohlins/AST etc.... but I think for him the megans would be fine, how do they ride? maybe we can get a ride sometime.

Thanks bro. Been looking and found some Direzza dz101 255/35's. I will be picking up a set of TE37's 18x.9.5 +22. Reason why I chose 245/40 earlier because most of the people who ran these wheels all had 245/40 to avoid rubbing even when fenders rolled.

Megan Streets are not bad. They ride better than stock GSR suspension imo. I will be getting some KW's this year though. Got these for a very cheap price thats why i jumped on them.

Sure lets meet up one day bro. Vegas is small. Hehehe.
