What tires should I run with this setup?

I am looking to drop my F56 3 door about an inch to an inch and a half at most. The wheel specs I'm looking at are 17x9 +30. What tires should I run in order to clear without rubbing? Trying to keep the stretching to a minimum, but if I have to stretch, there's not much I can do about it. I'm also about to be tuned for 260hp so these tires need to be able to handle the power. I'm open to different wheel specs aswell so post up your current tire and wheel setups.

You're way off. +30 is going to poke out a lot. There are several threads on wheel fitment, do some reading there.

You will stick out over an inch more than these (8" wide et45)



You will need to stretch, slam, and camber that shiz to get anything near 'fitting'
