New Tire/spacer set-up - second opinion needed...
I'm so confused, I'm planning on upgrading my tires to a bigger size but not sure if they will fit the stock sport rims, don't know what size spacers to get, and I'm getting the eibach springs so I don't know if everything will fit right. Front: BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW Rear: BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 If anyone can help me on my upgrade path, I'd really appreciate it.

First of all. Those tires are super loud. 20mm spacers will fit on a lowered car in the rear. Would probably stay w/15's up front just to be sure. You never mentioned the tire size in your question though. Why are you changing tires?

I want more grip, I was in an accident recently so I'm upgrading my whole suspension for a better piece of mind. Can you suggest another tire, I thought the tire looked pretty good plus I got a F.I. Exhaust coming so I don't think the noise would be that bad. Front tire 255/40/19, Rear tire 295/35/19

I think the tires on your car are very good. Just by going wider you will improve grip. The spacers will improve stability a little also. I would go w/15s all the way around w/that set up. I was looking at tires for my 06 350, and thought the michelins wore longer and had the same grip as the bridgestones. They are very expensive though. I'm not a tire expert by any means. The BF's are a good tire too, just very loud. There has been a discussion about tires on other threads. You may want to check it out.

I guess some guys like hankook ventis v12's. They are pretty cheap too.
|
That's the second time I've heard that the BF goodridge tires are loud, how loud do they get? The price would be about $600 for the rear & $200 for the front.
|
You said you were getting an exhaust? Then you are right. You probably won't notice the noise.
|
Ya the fast intentions exhaust, I think I have an idea on what I'm going to do: eibach springs, h&r 15mm spacers front & rear, BF-Goodridge 255/40/19 up front & 295/35/19 for the rear.
|
Sounds juicy. I am saving for an exhaust also. I want the FI but am afraid my driveway is too steep. That exhaust is sweet.
|
I second the ventus 12's or something nicer...

^Ventus 12's?
