I thought for 9 and 12 in wheels you had to go to stock GT2RS size tires also which would be the 245/35 and 325/30....? Hundreds of turbo owners have the wider wheels from what ive read the last few years and it looks like most went with 245/35 and 325/30 with no issue you at all.

I’m running a 245/325 combo with 19x12 wheels in the rear and it really looks good. I changed the type of tire at same time (Michelin PS 4s) at same time so not sure whether it’s the tire or width but it sure sticks better than before.

Curious for more views on this. I have a set of 19x9(F) and 19x12(R) inbound and looking at tire options. Here were my calc's on stock vs. wider tire options - curious whether the additional gap between front and rear is problematic. 3.6% difference vs. 2.9% delta with stock set-up. I suppose another option would be to run 315's in the back and bring it closer to stock (2.7% delta), though there aren't as many tire options available in 315. In with more wear likely on the rear's, the 2.7% delta will likely decrease, going away from stock. I have the question in to a few local shops, but curious if anyone here has an informed view.
I ran 325/30/20 and 245/35/20 in my 2009TT and it seemed fine, but 19's are new to me.
