Yeah I have a 10.5" rear wheel and the 275 is strectched and doesn't offer any sidewall protection for the outer lip on the wheel..Im getting 285/30/20s for the rear and this will offer more protection for the lip of the wheel and add a wide more aggressive looking tire...YAH YAH!!!!!

I have 10.5" rear running 275/30/20 Falken 452's and they are stretched, recently I am having issues with air leaking through the bead, I have a feelings its cos I should be running 285's in the rear, but I rub like a **** with 285's. Offset's on the wheels are 26 in the rear. So I am going to have to unload my wheels to someone else that is able to fit wider tires in the rear...I am thinking G35 coupe's should be able to handle it with no issues. I know a few people here are running GT30's 10.5" with 275 in the rear with no issues...

i always recommend 275 on 9.5-10 and 285 on 10.5. then usually 245 on 8.5-9 and 255 on 9.5 up front.

just picked up my Yokohama S drives 255/35 yesterday. that ish is wide man! I'll see how the 275's fit the 10.5" in the rears before I go with 285/30's.

I have 275's on the rear with a 10.5" rim. I think if i could do it again i would probably go with 285's...
