285 On Rear Of An R33 Gtst?

[nsta]

As topic suggest, is it possible to fit 285's on the rear of an r33 gts25t coupe?the only reason i ask, is cause i can get a set of 2 for a very very good price, and if i can fit it then why not, btw the are bridgestone s02's brand new 285/35/18's for my rear

also is there any benefit in getting 285's, or should i pass up the offeR?

i thought 265 were the maximum....

I have 285s on the back of mine, and the guards arent rolled either.

Better traction, looks fat from the back.

I fit 275/40/17's on the bum of my 33 gtst. Had the tiniest amount of room left but i have even seen 295's on a 33. Your wheel offset must be spot on though.

yeah, depends on the wheels and offset. how wide are the rims?

[nsta]

my wheels are 9.5inches wide rear, dont know offset, but close to +40 id think
