Yea, another tire question

[Babbit]

So I just ordered some 18x9 FR500's for my cobra and was wondering how wide of a tire I can go. I'm thinking about just getting all 4 corners 275/35. Will I have any rubbing issues up front when turning?

My suspension is stock but I am looking to upgrade/lower in the future.

Thanks people.

17x9 rims rub with my drop...not sure about the 18x9. I can hear it at full lock when I turn left. 275 tires won't rub at all. The SMALLEST you should run is 275s....right now I have 275s up front, 285s in back...i'll get a pic this weekend when I clean the car up....it looks SOOOoooooo good from behind. Especially with the Goodyear GS-D3s.

I run 285s out back with a 2 inch drop and no probs. 18x10 tires.

thanks for the responses guys...

I guess my next question is will there be tire bulge with 285/35's on a 9 inch rim. I would guess not because of the shorter aspect ratio, but I'm not an expert.
