Ordering a new set of GA3s for my 06 coupe. 18x11 front and 19x13 rear. Just wondering if there are any issues running 11 wide in the front, also looking
for size recommendations so as to have the tire sticking out further than the wheel for protection purposes. THX.

Not as much as you think. Depends on wheel offset and camber setting.
I was referring to the photo. If it sticks out past the fender on top, I would not do it, not to mention extra gravel shrapnel.

As soon as you turn the wheel they all stick out no matter what the size is.

Wheel offset is important. Stay as close to OE offset as possible and add some negative camber up front. I run 315's on the track as Mark does, no fitment issues.

Rear offset is more critical if the car is lowered.
