I went with nitto nt555 245/40x18 on front and 255/40 on rear see how that works out

i have a set of bridgestones potenza i had sitting in the garage with about 40% thread left so im just using those for about a week or two just to see how the fit ment works out. my uilmate tire setup will be BFgoodrich KDW-2 if everything goes well with the set-up im putting on.
@King Tut how is that ride with the 265

I don't have them yet. My new wheels get here on Tuesday, and I am not sure they will clear my Brembos. Once I find a set that works, I will order the tires. The ride has been fine on my 245/35/18 PSSs though so a little more sidewall and width should be good.

Frs300 · 05-13-2013, 07:38 PM

265 up front is a bit much

lexusb3 · 05-13-2013, 07:42 PM

well i ment rear i have 225/40/18 set up in the front the back i was debating 255 or 265 but after hearing it has a lil rub ima do 255

I'm running 225/40/18 fronts and 255/35/18 rears with no rubbing. +42 and +38 on offset. Seems to be the perfect amount of grip all the way around but you are putting down about 100 more HP than I am so your results may vary.
