Would you guys go with 275 or 285 @ the rear??

It's about time for some new tires and think I need to switch from the ****ty T1Rs....

I do track my car every once in a while.

If you can fit the 285 go for it!

wider is better

I am very happy with the 285 KDW2's.

what offsets can fit with 285? and low drop?

F9.5" +19/R10.5 +29 . . . Lowered 1" at the moment the Tein Basic set-up with more adjustment available. However, I did have the rear fenders rolled in advance. The KDW2's are a meaty tire with a thicker sidewall. Agressive rear offsets may present themselves to be a problem.

Wally, I was going to bring that up over at Cal Speedway. You should definately go 285!

By the way, why don't you like the T1R's?

.

Andy, can i bother you for a picture of your tires? I wanna see how meaty they are.

Thanks in advance!

well I don't think my T1R's are hooking up like i'd like them too anymore. I needed a change anywho. We'll see how these do when I get them.

I won't have a chance to get them before LACR on the 20th. but hopefully around May.

i hope andy won't mind that i beat him to it...

thanks for the link!

WOW, I actually think I'll be going with that set-up!

by the way: Andy, your G looks sick with the new shoes!

LOL . . . Nice job, Leon.

Wally, I really like this tire/wheel set-up. The KDW2's can be noisy during certain road conditions. Other than that, they have performed quite well and I couldn't be more pleased. Those pics were with the OEM suspension set-up. I later switch to Z H-Techs and finally to the Tein Basic set-up. I think I am almost done.

Andy, have you gone to the track to test those bad boys out?

and what kind of tires did you have before? wait OEM right?

thanks in advance!

Wally,

My track plans have been put on hold. Initially, when I got my G, that was the plan. Yes, prior to the KDW2's I was running on the OEM Potenza RE050A's.

I absolutely love the way the car handles now with the new wheel/tire combo and suspension mods, which were added. The said afforded a whole new experience/sensation when driving the twisties, agressively. I would love to hit the track, at some point. However, then I would like to get a different set of wheels, upgrade the brakes and suspension . . . And that all adds up to more costs.

Always go as wide as possible, with your wheel/suspension setup. Sounds like you'll be fine with 285
