The "Will it fit?" thread

ChaseZ · 06-01-2016, 11:06 PM

I found a set of 20x9 25 and 20x10.5 30 that will get me closer but the problem is the only tires that come 245/35 and 295/30 in a set are P zeros, and even with the credit they aren't cheap.

I'm thinking about trying these new Firehawk Indy 500's

what website are you on; the fast wheels are showing a 72.62 hub bore (ours is 66.1) unless they are different spec in Canada.
Also a Factory 19x10.5 Nismo wheel is 19x10.5+23 (close to flush)
Your offset numbers should read 6 or 7 more + on the front wheels with a 1.5" stagger....you getting there.

jchammond · 06-01-2016, 11:16 PM

hope you have some smoooooth roads for 20" wheels.

jchammond · 06-01-2016, 11:42 PM

those tire choices that you have picked out/will fit a 2" stagger better than a 1.5"-ChaseZ
Pick your poison,,,,find the perfect tire/wheel you like & then match up sizes and offsets.

Will the Fujimura Carbon Fiber Rear Diffuser fit on a 2014 model?

Close to flush sounds good.
Know the front ins of specs offhand too?

The pain is not everything is available in all sizes.
Be a piece of cake otherwise and I wouldn't have to ask all these stupid questions!

Ok so I should be better set with these specs:

19x8.5 25 (245/40)
19x10 25 (285/35)

This brings me into RE-11 category, which sounds like there is stock. The Indy 500's are also available in this size. I believe +35 is available for the fronts should that be the better option, though given the fronts are only 8.5 wide I assume +25 to be more appropriate. Remember, near flush being the goal, but I want a little room for when I lower the car, and aren't a fan of negative camber.

Thanks

I'm almost in need of new tires, the bar in between the treads is almost even. I'm running stock camber, height etc. I want 305s but I heard it'll worsen the start etc due to the amount of rubber. What would be the largest reccomended tire size for my case if I do spirited driving, no track. I was thinking of keeping the front stock sized (nitto invo) since they aren't worn at all and getting new 285/35/R19 (Ventus V12 evo2) in the back. Or would 285/30 be a better fit?

Jwomack,
You drive a sport (9 & 10" wheels) ?
Are your rear tires worn out evenly across; or wearing out the inners?

I believe it's 9 and 10 inches. I gotta check the stock size again. It's almost even but the inners are slightly more worn.

Where in Canada are you shopping for wheels and tires or are you binging them in from the US?

Yeah; 285/35 invo is best fit for the 10",,, the 305 is a 30series...(too short compared to your front tires.
Are you thinking of 2 different brand tires F/Rear ?

jwomack1547 · 06-02-2016, 04:55 PM

Yeah for the time being, my front still looks new
