Default Factory nismo wheels on swifts........

Is there a consensus of the widest tires that can be run on the fronts and rears while lowered on factory wheels and swifts? I am also thinking about running a square setup of 285/35 RE11s for autox, but would this be ok considering this is also my daily driver that sees about 100 miles a week? Thanks in advance.

i was lowered further than swifts on my coils and i could've easily gone 305's in the rear and 265's in the front, so much space.

No tires rub/hit the front bumper/fenders when you make a turn?

no, no rubbing whatsoever on stock tire sizes + 15mm spacers all around. i had a 1 finger wheel gap in the front, 2 finger wheel gap in the rear.

the only time i rubbed was harsh dips. and thats because it was rubbing the fender liner slightly
