305/30/19 RE-11 fits Sport Wheels

cossie1600 · 01-24-2011, 08:16 PM

Yes, stock everything 265 35 19 F and 285 35 19 rear. Heck, my race rims have 285 on it

370z_2910 · 01-28-2011, 12:35 AM

How about 265/40 front & 285/40 or 305/40 rear...

Making 40 series on both front & rear wheels...to reduce bumpy feel

Any comments..

Ride will be rough regardless, the bonus with the RE11 is that they are quieter and rides better than stock without the loss of steering feel (Hankook V12)

I put these next to the invos today, the compound feels so similar. I am going to have to test these 2 and see which is better

Why go from 285/35 to 305/30? Why not 305/35 and keep the side walls about the same height? Wouldn't going from 35 to 30 create a bigger gap between the wheel and fender line?

The INVO grip no where close to the RE11s, it's like comparing a 370Z to a Scion TC.

305/30/19 on the rear give you an error of 61.1 MPH when the stock wheels are 60 MPH. 265/35/19 give you an error of 60.9 MPH whereas the 275/35/19 gives you an error of 60.3MPH so the 265 are a closer match to the 305s...

The car is pushy though so I'd get as much as I could up front.... you'd have to check with the pro's to get the real world scoop. I think a few are recomending 285s on all four corners...

For the guys running 285 on stock sport 19s, did you have to run spacers at all? I'm currently running the Swift springs with stock sport wheels and tires, but they just break loose too easily. Anyone with this setup running a wide set of tires with no rubbing?

cossie1600 · 02-08-2011, 01:06 PM

I have them in the rear, no rub

BLM · 03-08-2011, 06:33 AM

I know everyone is saying the 305's fit the rear without issues, but the specs list the tires width range from 10.5 to 11.5 and measures 11. Like someone said previously, what's the point of going so wide on the stock wheels if you cant utilize all the rubber?

cossie1600 · 03-08-2011, 09:17 AM

to show off?

BLM · 03-08-2011, 09:24 AM

LOL well I hope not. Still not as bad as the FWD GTI guys who run staggered set-ups for "looks" and create even more understeer.

How? Stiffen your rear sway bar and go faster around the corners....

BLM · 03-09-2011, 10:23 AM

The minimum specified wheel width for a 305 tire is larger than the stock rear wheel (10 inches). How does going fast around corners fix this?

FricFrac · 03-10-2011, 01:16 PM

True the recomended is 10.5 inches but 10 is close enough to be safe and to work properly. My point however was that to take advanatge of the extra grip in the rear its as simple as stiffening the rear end or softening the front (eg make the rear "looser"). Don't forget you're also increasing the front from 255 to 275 as well. If you aren't adjusting your suspension 285 all around is a common setup.
