m6 replicas on the new ride. Carbon fiber spoiler and performance exhaust too!
I found some M6 replicas in San Diego. 8.5/19 up front 9.5/19 for the rear! +35 and + 38. Tires are 225x35x19 and 235x35x19. There is a little tire stretch on the rears. Any wider tire and I was told they would rub. Frankly, 8.5's all around would have been just fine too.
Adding some new pics with the 245's on the rear instead of 235.

I'm curious to see also. It was a pain in the a$$ to find wheels for this car. The high offset along with the limited inner space makes it pretty difficult to fit wheels on this car. My wheel guy and I called many vendors and they were all hesitant to go larger than 8.5 in the rear. Most stated that custom 2 piece or 3 piece is needed to get something wider than 9"ish to fit.

I just think the rear tires are so skinny. Can't it fit 245s on those 19s.

I'm on the fence about the 235's too. Not sure if I am crazy about the stretch on the tire. I may try 245's but I've been told they might rub. The shop just did a 135 with 245's and they did rub.

Thanks Man. San Diego Wheel and Tire. Their number is 858-277-6500. Talk to Manny. I am swapping the 235's out for 245's tomorrow am though. A little too much tire stretch on the 9.5 wheels!

I just ditched the 235's in the rear for 245's. They fit much better. No stretch on the 9.5's now. I'll post some new pics later in the day when the sun is not so intense!

Good question. The 245's are looking pretty wide as it is. The are slightly wider than the fender well. Since the inside of the fender well is tapered already, they may fit.
