Cooper RS3-S Width
Will most likely be going with Cooper RS3-S tires for next summer. Wouldn't mind having them be a little wider than stock but I'm running the 19x8.5" wheels and I'm not sure new wheels are in my budget. Do the Coopers tend to run a little wide/narrow, or are they pretty much right where they should be? Can I try and squeeze 265 tires on there safely?

My bigger concern is how it looks, don't want an even more pronounced 4x4 look. Whole point of the wider tires was to give it a bit more of an aggressive stance.

I have the 255/40 Coopers on a 19x8.5 wheel, an it looks good. Not much bulge. Look at page 1 for some pics. I dont know how much wider the 265's would be, but it looks like a possibility.
Their website says a minimum of a 9" wheel for 265.
