saleen has the biggest tire ive seen, but apparently they roll the fenders to accomodate it. They have a 275/35/20 on the front adn a 275/40/20 on the back.

rolling the fenders means modifying the wheel wells so that a larger tire fits without having the tire rub the fender, something you may not want to be doing. Also, saleen uses a 9" wide wheel.

Here's a pic of Sean Hylands car:
You can see how beefy the tires look but still fit inside the wheel well. I know some guys have larger wheels and tires on their cars but this is as large as I would go.
Another pic from the rear.............
It's all a matter of personal choice but to me a 275/40/18 on a 18X8.5 inch wheel looks to be the best compromise. You get a nice fat tire but it still stays inside the wheel well. Just my 2 cents...............
