Stock C5 tires size - Maximum width?
I just ordered Nitto 555's Extremes in 255-45-17 in lieu of the 245-45-17 which is the stock size on the 8.5" front wheels. Should I be concerned about the tire rubbing in an extreme left or right turn? What is the maximum front tire size that will fit?

I had 17x9.5 wheels on the front of mine with 265 size tires. No rubbing issues there.
