Time to buy new tires again...

You can run a 305/30/20 in the back without spacers. That's the OEM size for the SS 1LE.

It always depends on the off set.

Correct. I have a really aggressive offset which makes them just barely poke out the fender.

Oh, you never said why you want bigger rear tires? I'm guessing drag since you didn't mention fronts too.
Most of these guys want wider tires just because of the way they look.

I was able to cut a 1.9 60 ft in my M6 and won my autox class a few times on stock rubber I never understand why some of these guys with basic mods or stock motor need these big tires.

..and they don't poke out?? You get on 9,5 "285 and on 10,5" 305 wheels? That sounds strange.
