Thanks for the replies. Yes a sedan. I already have the tires; just need to get the wheels refinished.

Thanks man. It's being taken care of as we speak. Crossing my fingers for a tucked wheel.

I ended up going with 275s in the back instead of 285's. I'm thinking the wheels will look just as nice either way.

If i cant post pics of my car here i understand.

Now the wait begins!
275s if right at the FAT line, not really fat but obese enough to get in the club

It would be very, very close. You might be able to get away with it because of the minor stretch you would get with the 285's but still it would be very close. You may get a bit of rubbing and need a fender roll but the only real way to find out would be to try it. Please post pics if you do

If the wheel you're wanting comes in a 10.5" that would be a better fit IMO, just a bit more room for error, an 11" even w/ a slightly stretched 275 will be nipping at the fender edge unless you're wanting to go excess camber.

kdawg; As mentioned above are reasons I went with the 10.5 +45, fitment. Plus the 285 on an 11" wheel doesn't give the same "fat" look as it does on a 10.5". Take a look at my pics of my G and Z. The G has a 285 on a 19x10.5. The Z with the WORKs are a 285 on a 19x11 and the HRE are sporting a 305 on a 19x11.

I never measured it. If you must know I could.

As you can see from the attached picture there is a 3mm (0.11") increase to the back of the barrel. 1/2" = 12.7mm. So you would increase the lip by 9.7mm or 0.38" at the "cost" of less tire bulge/ taller tire from stretching.

Lastly on the attached comparing my 285/35-19x10.5 +45 to your 285/35-19x11 +45; "Will fill out the wheelwell by extra 14mm (0.55"). Make sure that you have enough room under the fender. If not, consider lower profiles or smaller rims."

245/35/20 in the front and 285/30/20.
