Would these sizes be too much for the G??

Forgstar F14, 19x10 +20 front, 19x11 +33 rear
w/ 255 and 295 tires

I'm lowered on eibachs so my question is would I rub real bad or would these be sticking out too much??

Thanks, Age

I think that's pushing it front and rear, especially w/ those tires....

It will definitely rub in the rear and stick out a lot, I think.

I think it's way too big. BTW, offset aside, unless you have some experience with this that I don't, I wouldn't think it would bee too pleasant to run 10" rims in the front. Even if it didn't rub while turning, I would think a tire footprint that large would make steering harder.

Thre tire footprint would be 255mm, not 10". The wheel width doesn't determine the footprint, the tire does.

That being said, many ppl are running 245s on the front with no problems, 255 wouldn't seem to be much different than anyone else.

I think that goes without saying. I hadn't realized he posted his intended tire sizes.
