Who knows? You haven't told us anything about the wheels, you've only told us about the current tires....

M spider? What's that?

We need to know the size of the wheel in order to tell you what tires you can put on it..

Really need to know the offsets of the wheels.

If your offset on the rear matches the 166M wheels, you can fit a 285/35 on the rear. If you do this, you have to change the front to a 245/40, which can be the problem depending again on the offset. If your front offset matches that of a 166M you will not be able to do it.

With the offsets you can get some info here. Since you have the wheels already, go to a good tire shop and have them look at the fit your currently have and they can measure new tire sizes and give you their input.
