215/35 dz101 on a 18x9.5.... If I run -10* of camber in the front, will it be safe? I've never ran that much camber and stretch at the same time so I'm a little sketched out about it debeading.... Any feedback appreciated, I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing

Haruguchi drifts the same setup on an 18x10 lol u should be good. Maybe run higher pressure like 50 psi just in case, to lower the chance of debeading.

I run 215/35s on 9.5 with approx. -9* up front and I've been fine drifting it.

One of my used rear tires wouldn't strech all the way for some reason, but I drove it from Houston to San Antonio and back yesterday, just got over 500 miles on this set up and it seems to be fine

Feddy are your best bet bro, they run wider than most... throw fire and cheetah at it and be careful

Urgent question, Anyone seen a 295/25 or 285/30 on a 12.5 rim before?

I am buying tires for my E93 today and
not sure if I should go 285/30 or 295/25
on 12.5 inch Ordens..

I cant find any online to see what it looks like.. being an M3 I wanted to have max contact patch but the fitment will be super agressive.

Hey Gabe, I run a 245/35 on an 11 up front. I'm using hankook ventus v12 tires also. Before I ran the 295/30 I actually had a 285/30 on the 13 and the tire seated but there was too much exposed lip and barrel for my tastes. And the tire guy I went to didn't feel safe going over 80 psi without a tire cage.But here is a pic of the 295 on the 13

I got it to work, I might even try a 275/30 on the 12.5 now. I need more space.

Stretch experts need some help need to stretch 245.35.18 on 18x10 I know it's not a big stretch by any means just need something with semi soft sidewall trying to avoid fender work on front of Supra. Will be a temporary setup until I order new wheels with higher offsets and can run 265.35.18. Looking for W rated tires at a minimum. The Federal 595 RS-R looks decent not sure if they run big though or true to size.

Anyone, correct me if I am wrong but the smaller profile you choose, the stiffer the sidewall so I am not understanding the "semi-soft sidewall" part.

As for fitment, your best bet is to read this thread on supraforums regarding fitment; http://www.supraforums.com/forum/sho...h-here!/page51.

245/35 will go on an 18x10 no problem, just put the black rubber bead sealer on it and inflate it and itll probably seat on its own, just get whatevers cheapest if its going to be temporary

worse case I will run 325/30 on the 14.5 but I was wondering who has experience with
-Bridgestone Potenza RE11
-Good year Eagle F1 supercar
-Ventus V12

which runs wide or smaller?
Any help is appreciated!

I'm very familiar with Supra offsets, I've helped several people with ordering wheels for Supras and SC's. The wheels I have were spec'd for a Z32 which I sold and kept the wheels, rear is fine front is semi-aggressive, currently running 255.35.18 R888's which rub on dips. I will be ordering proper fitment later this year, just looking for a temporary solution tire wise so no rubbing and not familiar with what tires stretch better, need to run 245.35 on 18x10. The 255.35. R888 is oversized more like a 265.

Thanks, looks like Hankook Ventus V12 Evo will fit the bill, I need a Y rated tire and based on research and pics etc...this will work on 18x10. Only need it until end of year or early Spring next year.

Bumping an old thread, have any of you experienced this tire for stretching? I want to try and stretch 245/40 on a 18x12, and I am wondering if I will have issues with this tire. Feedback on this tire would be great since I can source them for $60 each.
