Not trying to bust your chops, but just trying to point out that a tall sidewall does not mean shitty handling. You want tall... I ran 225/50/15 hoosiers on the front of a sentra, the car was still fast and easy to drive on track. |

Nothing a set of cheap ebay wide fenders couldn't fix, or just run the car high enough so the tires never smack the fenders .

Wow. Pearl White/RPF1 got popular fast.
My car: sean350z's sig pic (which I assume is his car): And above: Fuck, I'm buying aero next. Car looks good, though, JRas. I kinda wish I went the 9.5 route. |

Not as baller as some of you guys, but its a big jump for me. 18" G35 wheels.
245/40/18 Front 255/35/18 Rear Stock fenders, rubs when I hit hard but not bad since I'm not dropped to low. Roll coming soon. |

lol, you know what, you are right. i didn't even notice that till now. the 35 series and 40 series tires were supposed to be for the 235/245 setup. at the last minute, i decided to go with 245/255 setup but totally forgot about the sidewall aspect ratio. oh well, i'll just have to keep it as is. good catch.

275/40/17's on my S14. But they're really wide 275's.
Right after install and no changes to camber. Fenders were already pulled for my last set of wheels/tires. Needed more fender modding though. After a little more pulling. Still needs just a few more mm pulled out of the fenders so it won't rub on hard launches or big bumps.

Revive!
Guys I went to have a look at prices for tyres the other day and at the shop they had 265/35/18's sitting there in a stack- they were Kumho semislicks, couldn't stop staring at them and touching :P. And also was having a gander at a Porsche Carrera sitting round the other day and it had 265/35/18s on the rear and 235/18s (pff) on the front and had to laugh cause at the shop I ordered 275/35/18's for ALL 4 corners :P! SO I'm gonna have wider wheels on all for corners on my S14 :O then on the back of a Porsche lol :d loves it. There will be photos, so this thread can go on |

I have a set of 17x9 +15s all around. I was wondering what fitment issues 235/40s all around would have? How well does it work with KA gearing? (s13 on coils)

I'm a big fan of stretching and hellaflush fitment.... but I can't deny the coolness of a meaty drag car setup. A friend of mine is picking up a S13 soon, and I'm pretty set on doing his car this way.

Man fit some 255s up front heh... thats a huge stagger + huge waste of front wheels (9.5 you can fit 275s as well, 10.5 holy crap fit some 295s...)
importantone - this is not a drag car thread.. otherwise we'd be running skinnies in the front and 3xx or mickey thompsons all the time... its for the grip crowd mostly... |
