The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XXIV

Just checked and could go 265/35 and still be 26.3" tall which isn't terrible. The 325/30 rear are 26.7" with 3.8" sidewall. 245/40 would give me 26.7" tall with 3.9"

245/40 would give me 26.7" tall with 3.9" sidewall, which is damn close too. Don't think they make T7R in an 8" rim, 8.5 smallest if I recall. But I could probably deal with that. Not much cost savings to be realized but that's not the whole point.

What offsets did you end up getting. 305 rear right? What was the front again?

Mr Scott please post a photo of your new wheels and tires with a yard stick underneath one of your massive steam rolling
tires. I'm curious what the surface ground - patch is in inch's

Thank you.
