are u going on staggered or not? im running 225/35 all around squared up and im kinda scared going close on the gutter lol (scratching the wheels). I would say go for 235/35, thats me tho

I will probably go squared up. I really need to able to rotate my tires do to the amount of driving I do. I do think you guys have sold me on the 19's though. Now just which ones? And which tires? I probably need some sort of high performance all season tire.

The difference size in wheels may also affect your speedometer reading.

I'm waiting for the S7:F myself...but won't be getting it unless they bring the size down...

Yesss 19s lol. I loved both S7:F and R5:F Gunmetal. I have toyo proxes t1 sports. Yokohama S drive are good too. So its all up to you now

If it does affect the speedo how much would it be off and which way would it be off? I'm not to worried about it. Just would need to know which way to adjust my speed.

Since the wheels are bigger, the speedometer would read slower than you're actually traveling. (Counted by the rotations of your wheels/driveshaft via transmission/sensors)

Isnt that they released the S7:F on 18s? Not sure, but i think it does available now.

jchall30 · 12-15-2012, 04:10 AM

Their website doesn't show hem in 18's yet. Might change my mind if they are available in 18's.

Hi guys

I'm a but of a novice when it comes to wheel upgrades, not a huge fan of the stock wheels and will want to get rid of them pretty much straight away.

I would like to stay with the stock suspension set up if possible, so my question is what is the widest tire I could put on the car without having to worry about anything?

Would I be fine with say 18x8.5 or 18x9.5? Or would they require other things done to run them?

Thanks for any help

#87 · 12-15-2012, 09:43 AM

8.5 +45 with a 245 would be a nice set if you want to stay square and keep the front inside the fender on stock suspension
