M-Perf Suspension Owners with non-factory tires

What is the widest you have gone in the fronts and rears (of course without rubbing)?
Was curious if anyone done wider than 235 in the front and 255 in the rears...

If you have gone wider that that, more details would help such as wheel sizes and offsets, spacers used if any, etc.

I plan on going 265's down the line, it shouldn't be an issue....

I probably wouldn't go past 285 on 18's...

That's encouraging. Was not sure if 245/40R18 would be have been too aggressive with the MPS.
What are you running in the rears?

You sure 265/40 in the rear would not be too tight with the MPS? How aggressive are you planning to go in the fronts?

There's plenty of room, the MPS is pretty tight.
245/40's in the front...any more rubber than that, and I'm losing mpg and not gaining, in my opinion, that much more in traction around the track.

Square 245/40-18 setup all around couldn't hurt either...
