Front tire size suggestions for Stock V2 Nismo wheels on track

Evildky · 03-26-2021, 05:02 PM

I'm running 265/35 on front Nismo wheel (V1 specs are the same) with 285/35's out back. stock suspension minus the Kino sports and the hotchkis front bar at full stiff. I don't find it overly pushy, yes i some scenarios like the hairpin at my local track (turn 10 NCM), otherwise feels pretty neutral. With stock lack of camber I hesitated to go any wider on the 9.5" I had pretty bad shoulder wear on 275's on a 9" wide wheel on my 350Z. so unless you have camber arms you may want to avoid squeezing the widest tire possible.

I have 285/35-19 on 9.5 theon front now. Think my next move will be 325/30-19 on 11's on the front to match my rear 345/30-19's.

Yeah, my concern exactly. I might end up going with the 265s
