I'm with the OP, I prefer no poke and vertical tires. I am glad these issues are being aired out, not pulling the trigger until I'm satisfied that the wheels/tires that I want will fit the way I want.

Having said, I've been wanting to put 325's in the rear, now I feel like that's crazy. My DH is not lowered and will not be, but it will be whipped so I want the extra traction back there. It came with 275/40R19s, I was thinking of going with 325/30R20.

325/30/20 might just be a bit to wide and have some poke. we ran 20x11.5 with a 315/30/20 on a dark horse with handling pack and lowered on steeda springs

Let us know if you see any poke

absolutely. The angle isn't great but that looks like 10-15mm of poke. Drop a plumb line from the vertical face of the fender. If it touches anything that is by definition poke.

I have HRE 11" wheels on the Mach1 and I'll take a pic.
-1.5" of rear camber is nothing. it should be the standard setup.

Lovely! 315's are a negligible step down from what I wanted, no problem.
Quick questions (2)
- Where do the tires come from? Customer furnished or do you sell these also?
- I can't find a finish in your website that comes close to the DH factory finish, are there alternatives not shown?

We do offer full wheel and tire packages mounted and balanced with tpms pre programmed. We can match a color code if you have it for custom finishing

I'd say its about 7mm poke.

I would go with the 305/30 in the rear
Stock 255/40/19 are 27" tall.
305/30/20 are 27.2" tall.
305/35/20 are 28.4" tall.
EDITEDIT: I just looked and the performance pack rear wheels are 275/40/19 which are 27.7" tall.
I wonder if the speedometers are calibrated differently between the GT and GT PP. This also begs the question, is it better to go 35 or 30 if you don't have PP or do have PP?

With the 35s your speedometer will definitely be off. however @VELGEN WHEELS just posted a bunch with the 35s in the rear and they look and I'm sure perform fine. Just not what I would do personally

I have 305/35 20 on the rear, and 275/35 20 on the front. I can confirm my speedo is about 1 to 2 miles faster now. ie I'm going 55mph, and I'm really going 57mph.
