Sport Package Wheels - Need Help Deciding New Tire Sizes
 

I have the factory Sport Package wheels/tires. I've pretty much settled on RE-11's, but I'm having trouble deciding on the size. From browsing around, it seems 265F and 285R is the popular option. However, I see some folks sticking with the 245F and others going 285 all around.

This is my daily driver.. I do plenty of spirited driving so I would assume bigger is better, TWSS, but comfort is a little important as well (not sure if these are the factors people consider when deciding on width or if it's just a price thing). What is the best way to go?

I have seen the same as you stated, (265, 85) but also, 265-95 setups as well. There are a couple really detailed threads with some of the most favorable sizes.

Definitely for your setup, similar to mine, (daily driving/ spirited driving) I was going to go with 265, 295s I believe. :)

265/35/19
285/35/19
Best setup for a DD imo

yah, 245/40/19 with 285/35/19 or 265/35/19 with 285/35/19.

I decided to go with 245-40-19 as I did not want to mess with the speedo and lower the front end. I am dropped on Swifts and pretty much scrape everywhere as it is!

I DD on 275/35/19 square all around, if you need to rotate tire, u can mount and dismount...

How about 285/35/19 all around Ken? please advise. thx

285/35/19 square will fit, here is the rear 19" wheel in the front on a 275/35/19

beemaa- i can't comment on that cause ive not tried it myself. if you need tight turnability i think a square setup is a good quick way to achieve that. i only drive street so im keeping mine either 245/285 or 245/275 depending on the sizes available for the tire i want to get. :)

I am also driving street but I do like meaty tires :yum: unfortunately 265/35/19 is not available on Conti DWS which I like very much. They are only available on Conti DW. Just want to double check with you to make sure putting 285's on fronts without any issues. I am running stock rays btw :tiphat:

I went with 255/35 and 295/30 on my sport wheels

beemaa- personally, i wouldn't do it. use stock sizes or 285/35/19 (nismo stock) on the rear. :)

Thanks, Ken. I am glad I asked :tiphat:

This is 285 35 19 in the front

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'm going to go with 245/285.. I actually hadn't noticed these were stock sizes for Nismo. If it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me! :tup:
