Looking at a set of 335's Hoosiers but not sure if they will fit under my 2007 SGT? Any one know how wide we can go before it rubs?

Thanks

i believe i saw something on here where a 305 was the widest we could go and then you needed to go to SLA front and do something with the shocks in the rear to clear any wider?

im sure the guys who track often will chime in soon about this.

Stick with 315's. You will have issues with 335's without flaring the fronts.

Yes, I do run 315's at all 4 corners.

^^ dont you have the SLA?

Heck no! :) I do have AST Coil-overs, but the spindle, LCA, all that is stock bits.

Trust me, I am not sure you can cram a 335 in the front without touching something. I am close all around, but not rubbing.

I will get some pics of the front and the clearance this week/weekend. I have to swap tires and do some work on the car prior to the last weekend.

But here are some of the wheels on the car. Front and rear require a different offset. Or approx. a 55 offset rear *10.5 wide wheel* and a spacer in the front to get to a 35 offset.

Thanks I was looking at 335 for the rear only. Sticking with 285's for the front. I only have 10" wide rims, so 295's are what I decided on for the rear. I appreciate the feedback. I know some are running 305's or 315's not in the cards right now.
