However, I am still very much interested in running 275's in the rear.

The specifications on the Apex website claim you can run 275's.

This guy seems to have done it with no issues.


So did this guy.

However, the guys answering email at Apex recommended still going with 265's in the rear.

What would you guys do?

So did this guy (points to self)

In the rear, 275/35 series tires work, but be aware they're taller and may rub on your fender liner (no big deal) if you've dropped your suspension.

285/30 series tires fit in the rear and I've run them the last year with no major issue.

For both, it is a very aggressive fitment and you need to make sure your alignments are on to eliminate rubbing.

I've had far more problems in the front of the car after fitting the m3 control arms. Note that the 245's are very aggressive and you will probably need to be using camber plates and be max negative to avoid rubbing.
