Fronts -2.5 and rears -1.5. I have to raise it up though or adjust both for more negative. Not sure what to do as I like the height.

I run -3.3f -2.0r which gives me the proper tire temps and good tire wear. I am so close to pulling the trigger on the same wheel setup, with 275/35/18 NT-01. Probably only a 10mm or 15mm rear spacer though. Post more pictures! |

Hmm good info! Looks like I'm gonna need front camber arms. The rear shouldn't be a prob at -2.0 and that might save me from raising it up.

I'm just gonna chime in, I run 285.35.19 as my race tire, I wouldn't go any bigger, the tire is close to the inner suspension, outer fender and inside fender well. Any bigger you might rub, but hopefully someone can chime in that has ran this size for you

Thanks . I was thinking something alone those lines, i am running 255 and at least for me they are fat enough unfortunately the Toyo R888 for 20" only comes in 285 for the front so i will have to look elsewhere for another brand.

VSS - i personally feel you'll be alright to go with that as your section width is only 3/5 of an inch larger than mine with my 10mm spacers figured in. If you're on coils you wont have to worry about rubbing being an issue, but if you're still on factory springs ill tell you to be a little concerned. i run a 28.7" tall tire in the front and before I installed my stance coils they raped my fenders mostly due to wheel poke but ultimately because of tire diameter. There was no way to get around this though as I'm running 28.7" drag radials in the rear, so I had to run a large front tire or risk the car not even driving properly(which I ended up testing to be true in the process).

I have sport rims 19x9, 19x10. I'd like to put the 275/35 tires on the front 19x9 wheels and put 315/30 on the back. I'm lower with Swift spring by 1". I'm running Michelin, Pilot Super Sport tires.
Will this set-up work? Any help will be so appreciated. |

I'm not saying it will or won't work, but if it does, that's probably the absolute maximum you can get on there. PSS run a bit narrow, which may help. 265/305 works well for me, but I'm stock height.

315 is a lot of tire to fit on a 10" rim. I run 265/305 on stock Rays with 15/20 spacers and Swifts with no issues. I do get some tramming on uneven roads, I would think it would be worse with bigger tires. The handling may get a bit sloppy with that much tire on 9" & 10" rims too. I could tell the difference when I switched to larger tires. I really need 9.5" & 11" rims to run these sizes properly IMO.

I really would prefer 305, 295 if necessary. I know the 275 on the front is big but I really don't want to have to buy four tires just to change sizes, I want to put the money in other places right now.
Another question, would going with http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes on the back with the Michelin Pilot Super Sports be okay? |
