So what would the right size front tire to go with the 285 rear? 225 or can you go up?
You could go up to 235/40 front without any issue.
Rear 295/30 would work too. However it is on the wide side for a 10J rim. It also depends on the specific geometry of the tire itself. Some brands will settle better then others.
I ran bridgestone s02a 295/30 on this 5 spoke carrera rim. You see the tire shoulder is not completely square. Now running Yokohama 295/30 AD08r and it is a pretty straight fit.
All of our wheels are custom built per order so you can order different offsets and widths.

What size and offset are the stock 18" upgraded wheels. What is the best size tire to go with on these 18" stock wheels that would be wider than stock tires but still meets spec for wheel width with no rubbing?
