Hey guys,

I'm putting 20" Iforged sprints on my 05 coupe. 20x9 front 20x11 rear. I already have tires. 245 35 and 285 30. It has a slight drop with Tein h-techs. What offset would u recommend for an aggressive look? Im willing to roll fenders but don't want to do a camber kit. Any help would be appreciated.

^lol idk what that is either. One last question, but first some background: I pulled the trigger on the wheels I've been doing lots of looking in the Consolidated tire stretch thread on VIP style to get the best idea on what kind of stretch I'm getting myself into. I know many people run 255/35 on a 12", with generals, nankangs or achilles being good solid tire choices. I've also seen some decent comments about conti's. I like that I can flip those. So reading one of your earlier answers to someone else's question, a 255/35 will stretch easier than a 275/30 right? If that's the case I'd definitely like to pass on 30 series tires, mostly so I can limit fender work. I am strongly considering running a 265/35 on the 12. Do you think the 265/35 is gonna be too tall? I just want to make sure someone in AZ can actually mount the tires, and I'm concerned a 255/35 would be too difficult. The only issue is this limits my tire choices a lot. If going this route would you suggest the conti DWS? Nitto 555 are made in this size but I thought I read they suck haha. Thanks again!

Hey all. So im fairly new to modding. I have a few questions. I have a 2007 g35x and I just got a set of 19x9.5 wheels all around cuz I didn't want to mess up the awd system. My questions what tire sizes should I run? Also will 9.5 front stick out too much ? I will be lowering it on eibach pro kits too. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
Ok So Umm What Exactly Are Spacers?? Lol

What kind of aggressive are you looking for? like nice and flush or to the point of gonna rub here and there?

Also if you're buying these new, I'd recommend going wider up front. a 10/11 stagger would be more suitable (and bad ***)

255 can be easier than 275 but can also be much harder... It's really up to the mounter at that point and what kinda of machine they use. 265/35 would be pretty tall, is this a set of 19s or 20s?

I personally wouldn't go with contis, they have really stiff sidewalls and are going to be a bitch to remove. the triple nicks are also very stiff.

Why not run the General G max in a 255? (do they make it?) they're pretty soft and run large (like running a 265)

What is the offset on the wheels?

255/40

Spacers are pieces of metal that mount between your wheel and the hub. This pushes the wheel out more giving it a flusher appearance with the fenders.

Most tire shops can give you some insight on them or contact our vendors here on the site.

Hey 4DGS,

I wanna be nice and flush with as much lip as I can. I'd prefer not to rub much.

20x9 +6 20x11 +20

If you're interested in the wider wheel up front though, a 20x10 +18 will sit the same as the 20x9 +6 but will allow you to run larger tires up front which help with the Gs handling.

19x9.5+22 19x10.5+22 w/ 235/35/19 on AWD??

hey guys... i know I've asked this question a MiLLiON TiMES but i just need to be 100% before i make purchase on tires and have it mess up my differential.. I'm having trouble finding calculating width with tire.... I'm totally clueless on tire measurement.

SPECS

VARRSTOEN 2.2.2
19x9.5 +22
19x10.5+22
235/35/19 Achilles All Around.

VARRSTOEN 2.2.2
19x9.5 +22
19x10.5+22
235/35/19 Achilles Front
275/30/19 Achilles Rear

Will this Staggered wheel set up with the tire set up be ok on the AWD?

id really prefer the 235/35 all around, but I'm not 100%.

4DGS, I know you've told me it would work... i believe you, but just want to double check and get other feedback before i make purchase.

im worried about the 1 inch difference on the width. I'm not sure how much it would effect diameter measurement... I've been to many different tire size calculators but none have width measurement.

PLESE HELP!!!

wait what you're not staggering? you're going with 9.5 and 10.5 no?
Blaine, i missed this....

yes i am staggering, 9.5 and 10.5, so will that effect tire sizing?

i have AWD. so should i just go 19x9.5 or 10.5 all around??

Sup gdrivers,

20x10 rim with 38et all around

Front Tires: 245/35
Rear Tires: 275/30
Brand: Nexen 3000 or Archilles ATR Sport

03 Coupe lowered with Tanabe DF210 ( Rough estimate 1.7in drop maybe?)
Camber Kit all around

Would this set up fit?
Im worried about the front rims not clearing the struts. Im positive the rears would fit no problem. Any help/criticism is appreciate. Thanks in advance brothers.

Well the 275 set up won't even fit so I don't know why you're asking about that.

Run 225/40 and 245/35 for the best front to rear overall diameter.

255/35 and 285/35

Front will need probably a 15mm spacer rear should be ok.

You're going to want spacers so they don't look like **** so don't worry about them not clearing the strut.

4DGS, i was asking to if the 235/35 on a 19x9.5+22 be the same rolling diameter as 235/35 19x10.5+ 22?

i wasn't able to find a fitment calculator for the difference on the 1inch on width on the same size tire or something... (<---- does that make sense?)


i have the "X" so i was making sure that this set up is LEGiT.

but i found this website and it answered my question and it measures poke too....
