Tire width

What is the widest tire you can fit inside the wheel well on the stock 19" wheels?

I believe the below questions will help us answer:

What is the width of your 19 inch rears? Example is your car an early Vanatge V8, V8VS or a V12S or a different model? They have different sizes - Also do you plan to run spacers?

It depends on the rim width. Your OE stock rims should be 8.5J front (235/40/19) and 9.5J rear (275/35/19). 8.5J maxed out at 255 but most of us do 245. 9.5J maxed out at 285.

DB9 standard wheel sizes are 19x8.5F, 19x9.5R. I'm running 245/40F and 285/35R (slightly taller & wider than standard 235/40F and 275/35R).

I've read about owners using 255F & 295R, and I'm guessing that's about max on standard wheels.

I'm running a 325 21" I could have ran a 375 but it's a discontinued tire. You can fit a lot of rubber under the rear fenders, it all just comes down to your wheel size/width.

But a DBS ain't a DB9, so not applicable.
