just to warn you I have 275s and want wider [img]smile.gif[/img]-Eric<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/mustangeater82\" target=\"_blank\">2000 NBM V6 Camaro 5-speed</a> T-top <i>converted</i><br /><b>14.467@95.45mph</b> <i>$0 in mods</i><br /><i>The member formerly known as MustangEater8251</i>

i think i am going to go to 295/35/18..switching from the 235/55/16, it only makes the speedo off by .2 percent

Not to worried about .2%...not even woried about 2%, thanks for the warning though. You can get a 295 on a 9.5??? Well those are just the frounts, the rears are 11s and i am going to be running 315s so i am not to worries about getting the frounts to wide. But 265 is smallest but i can go as big as a 255?
Is there anywhere that would have all this info listed?2002 M5 camaro- VTR CAI, custom cat-back exhaust, battery compacitor, pullie, lowering springs, 32mm sway bar, cross-drilled slotted rotars. 1-10\" L7 in cubby.

I'd hop on tirerack, and check some tire sizes there. They list the recommended wheel width for each size. Choose a common tire, then choose "specs" and you should get a table listing all the sizes and tread width, diameter, wheel width, etc...\'98 A4 Camaro v6->v8 conversion, and STS kit next<br />v6: 13.6 Powerdyne, 13.2 150 shot, 13.8 120 shot, 14.3 85 shot, 15.7 stock<br />v8(na): 12.18@113, 392rwhp<br />Moderator on <a href=\"http://www.mtfba.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.mtfba.org</a> and <a href=\"http://www.frrax.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.frrax.com</a> (Road Race & Autocross)<br /><a href=\"http://community.webshots.com/user/johnduncan10\" target=\"_blank\">Car pics</a>, <a href=\"http://www.trscca.com\" target=\"_blank\">TN Region SCCA</a>

Negative. I have seen a 255/40 on a 17x9.5" rim. It wasnt too bad, but definetly not the right size. In my opinion a 285 is the right size, not a 275.
