Another FA24 swap into a 2018

235 tires are fine on 9" wheels. If you think you might even want to go down to 225, 8.5" would be better. Otherwise you'd actually gain a bit more feel from the extra stretch of 235 on 9" wheels....

225?

Looks quite all right. On 8.5” A052S should look totally fine - I checked, they run really wide. Thanks a lot for the pics! 225/40 A052S on 8.5 is my first choice now.

I think the 245 makes sense for higher track temps in Dubai! The 225 maybe a little bit faster in good conditions for a few laps but for longer sessions I'd want a 245.

Yes, 9” is better for 245 for sure but the 9s further increase fitment issues, my 2nd thought is to try 225/40s first on the 8.5 TWSs or go with Advan GT Beyonds 8” with 225/40.

A052s are an...

I've used snow tires plenty on much more aggressive alignments, that's not the issue.

Of course you CAN.

I've been doing it for over 60 years - ;)

My first car that I built had staggered tires.

Why?

Because, back on the farm, I couldn't find 4 tires that were the same size.
