Anyone got a picture of kw v3 coilers set at their highest (height) setting in the rear?

 

Ok so I have 19x9.5 +25 with 245/40/19 (PSS) (already on the wheels) for the front. I have 19x10.5 +22 for the rear what tire size is better 285/35 or 285/40? Does it matter? Lowered on eibach springs. Getting pilot super sports for the rears as well.

 

285/40 is going to be a very tall tire and probably too much variance between the 245/40 you have up front. 285/35 would definitely be the better fit.

 

Will 245/40 and 285/35 work or should it be 245/40 and 275/35? I always see them paired as 245/275 255/285 so not sure. ALSO, would I be able to do spirited driving/back roads win 285 or would they rub a lot?

 

Either one will work. 285 is just a bit wider than 275, so if you're looking for a meaty setup then a 285 should work. But on a 10.5, a 275 will be just fine too. Not sure if a 285 will present and clearance issues but I know it's a pretty popular size so I'm sure you can find some feedback on fitment if you look around.

Width wise, 245/275 or 255/285 or 245/285 all depends on how much of a stretch you want or don't want. But diameter wise, you want to keep it as close as possible. Use the tire/rim calculator tool to see how much of a difference they will be between each other.

 

I really like the 255/40 and 285/35 setup. That's what I'll be going with when my tires are done.

 

At 265, will they fit on the front? They seem quite... wide.

 

I had a 275/40/18 up front on my car. Wheels were +40 offset and rubbed a tiny bit on the inside. If they were a lower offset they would have been fine. Trammeling was a big issue.

 

Going with +30 on a 19x10 wheel. I guess it fits, according to a few calculators.

 

Hey all,

I have my 09 G37XS sedan. Going to lower on D2 coils and use the SBC camber kit front and rear. I'm getting some wheels soon and need a tire size.

20x9 +20 front
20x10.5 + 25 rear

Thanks to all in advance.

 

Those are some pretty aggressive specs for a sedan. Standard sizes for that width would be 245/35 front and 275/30 or 285/30 rear, but with those specs you might need to stretch to get them to fit.

 

They're coming off a GTR. Not the OEMs. I've seen these 10.5 all around with no issues and same offset.

 

Well, if you've seen it work then go for it not sure if I can help you there then cause I wouldn't know what to do with something that aggressive on my sedan


Maybe check the low offset/hellaflush thread?

 

Will do. Thanks though. Once I get it all set up I'll take a pic and show you the end result.

 

Bad part about that GTR setup is you're going to have to run a stretch tire in back (which means you'll also have to run stretch in front) so keeping your rolling diameter under 1% for your AWD compatibility gets a bit trickier. You could run something like a 225/40 255/35 combo. You can make it work but you'll have to be creative. You could also run the same 255s all around, member Ryne has a setup similar, with staggered wheels but the same tire size all around on his AWD and appears to have no issues, so there's a couple ways you can go.
G/L and look forward to pics.
