Also, has anyone looked into the potential downsides of increasing track width, like extra wheel bearing wear, additional stress on suspension arms, or increased load on the axle shafts? Or are these changes actually pretty minor and nothing to worry about in real-world driving?
I'm at 19x9.5 ET 22 with my set with 275 wide tires and it's pretty flush in the rear but still a little tucked up front but not that much, maybe a 5mm difference.
