Wider/taller tire on stock 19x8 with 10mm/15mm spacers?

[forbiddenbeat]

Hey guys, just picked up a 2016 Monsoon Grey S3, starting to mod it a bit. I'm starting with 10mm spacers in front and 15mm in the rear. I'd also like to swap out the Conti 235/35-19's for something a bit meatier, mainly to improve the ride quality. How wide can I go? Would a 255/35 fit? Running stock springs with mag ride.

Thanks, I forgot about that site. Does anyone have experience running a wider tire in general? I can calculate how much larger a 245 or 255 is, but it's hard to know from looking of I'll run into rubbing issues (on either side).

hey man - what did you end up going with? i'm thinking of beter tires on the S3. the stock Contis are definitely NOT up to track duty. the sidewalls roll over and with higher pressures they overheat and get destroyed (I ruined a brand new tire in a single day :( )

thanks!
