I have 19's as well the difference is hardly noticeable on speedo..Im passing cameras everyday with speedo on 140km and it is supposed to flash on 141km...

I think its opp if you go for larger wheels then speedo will show more isint?

 

the wheel size doesn't matter. It's the O.D of the tire that affects the speedo. as long as you keep the O.D similar to stock you shouldn't have a problem.

for example my 19" Tires are 245/40/19F and 275/35/19R while stock is 225/50/18F and 245/45/18R. you can see that the sidewall is now smaller for both front are rear by 10, thus keeping the O.D very similar.

 

bloody hell, does the 275 rear give you any problems?

I'm buying 245/40 for the front

and 255/40 for the rear

I'll see how they go

 

I'm on 9.5" width Volks in the rear and no problems. You can go upto 295 I think on a 9.5" wheel.

 

lol damn, well I'll stick with my 255's until I've shaved them good .

I've been trying to find a good place to go do a bit of drifting with the new rims but haven't had the time .

 

LOL I don't believe you...you have no radars no camera no restriction and you still looking LOL....In Dubai we will soon have fines over breathing loud in the car as well

 

empty lots in the middle of no where make a good starting place.

 

lol well, I have 2 choices:

1) Industrial Area on a weekend, it gets pretty empty and big empty roads but no lots , omg guys I have to show you this warehouse we have, it's HUGE and it has 3 huge hangers, the ground is sooooo damn smooth every time I go in I wanna drift sooooo baaaddd

I have to take pics of the road, you guys can't imagine how smooth it is, it's not even tarmac, it's huge single blocks of solid reinforced concrete, and ohhh soooo smoooth lol. But if I go drifting there, I'd probably have my head chopped of by my uncle haha.

2) Outside Jeddah around the sea, the only problem there is the roads are like crap, I gotta find a nice and smooth enough road. But on weekends it gets busy which is the only real time I have

see my dilema

 

well I finally got around to installing 245/40 F and 275/35 R.

First thing there's no rubbing at all so that was a relief.

Second I no longer scrap every time I drive in and out of my drive way

Three, I need to drive it more to get a better feel for the new tires, but they do feel much better than the 255/35's.

Now I'm just waiting for my rear camber arms to arrive and try dial in a bit of negative camber, any recommendations?

 

I'm getting one of those rims :

Enki GTC-01:




O.Z Superturismo:




So far everyone is voting for the Enki, including my wife , and they are $1000 cheaper than volk RE30 or GT30, the Enki looks very similier to the RE30.

 

one more vote goes for the Enkei. The O.Z belong more to an Evo IMO since it's very similar to rally wheels.

 

one more for the Enkei but colour is nice on O.Z but they will be really light right?....

whats the size your looking for and if you dont mind can you pm the price?

 

Man as you are lowered you would have negative camber already isint? Im on -1.5 and have rear the camber kit at home and dont want to install LOL

 

+1 on the Enki GTC-01:, they look lovley they remind me of mine lol but these are 12 spoke mine are 10

yeah it is running a little negtaive camber, what's the maz - camber I can run? do u know? I won't do the max I just wanna know for reference

 

I dont the max maybe someone can chime in....as far as i remember anything below -1.05 is off the normal and for front anything below -0.5
