    My 2009 EB is stock and ready for new tires. Currently running 255/70/18's on factory rims.
    I'd like to go slightly bigger on the same rims.
    Anyone know if 275's would rub without any suspension changes?

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the responses and the welcome. As much as I like aftermarket wheels there's something about the look of factory rims with slightly larger tires that appeals to me.
    Here she is now on the Pirelli's, I'll post some pics after.
