For the rears, Avant Garde's M359 only come in either a 9" width or 10" w/ a +ET 38. I wanted 9.5" (again to be safe). Thought 9" was not aggresive enough for the rear and 10" width was too aggresive. Again, the M359's used to come in a 19"x9.5" +ET 38 (which again, has subsequently been discontinued).

I would love for someone to go w/ the M359s w/ a 9" front and 10" rear to see how it fits on a stock suspension.... but I wouldn't want to take that chance (only to be stuck w/ them). Also, I sold me OEM 19" M Sport rims and kept the rubber. Stock rubber fits the BM-160s ... where as the 225 and 255 rubber would never fit the 9" and 10" AGs.

Make sense?
Thanks for the super detailed reply. It's really helpful.
