Widest Tires On Front?

What is the largest tire that someone is running on the front with a 17"x9.5" rim without any rubbing?

Re: Widest Tires On Front?

Before any one gets in here and tells you to use the search, I think I can answer your question.

With a two inch spacer and 56mm back spacing, 275/40/17 will go up front no problem.

285 requires a little bit of pounding and changing the inside of your wheel well.

Dont quote me on all that, cuzz I am not sure.
