We use 245-45 16s on our DE car. We cannot go wider in the front.
We have had 255-45 16s on the rear, but prefer to be able to rotate our DE tires. I think we might be able to get a 275-45 18 in the rear, but have not tried it. May barrow a set of wheels and tires from a 944 buddy just to try them. Our rears wear out first, and if we watch them close (and do not flatten them by sliding sideways) we get an extra track event or two out of a set. |

A 245 should be around 9.6" wide, a 255 about 10.2" wide, and a 275 measures in around 10.7"...give or take a 10th depending on the tire and manufacturer.
