you can do something like 265's up front and 315's out back. maybe more.

why dont you get a pair of wheels that suit the car instead? you have an na, you dont need huge tires. it'll make your car slower and eat gas. 17x7 and 17x8 work well, with 215's up front and 235's out back. 205 and 225 works fine too, but less sizes

The biggest you can fit normally is 225's up front and ~255's in back, but it's all about the offset. Go for 16 or 17" rims, preferably 7 or 7.5" up front and 8 or 8.5" in back.
