herrschaft your car looks good, is it dropped?

also, how about 275/35/19? thats what i have on the back now, but thinking of going down to 255, noticed the center of the tire is wearing out alot more than the edges, might be related to the psi of the tires but i doubt it.

Thanks, I'm lowered on Tanabe Pro-5 coilovers. I wouldn't DD with 275's on an 8.5" wheel, the 255's bulged slightly so that was the max for me. Tire wear like that indicates the tire is at too much PSI.

ive also read somewhere on here from someone else with 275 V12's that had the same issue

I do know about the overinflation, but the tires have been at around 36-38psi for most times, and alot of people go to 40psi with the hankooks v12

They were $1,300 when I bought them but I think Tanabe raised their price since then. In that pic I had the V12's which were run around 36-38 PSI, only wear on them was from camber.

I run 245/40/19 and 255/40/19. The 245/40/19 in the front rides a lot better than 245/35/19.

I got 245 front 275 rear. no problems at all!

HOWEVER. My next set will be 245 front and 255 rear. I dont like how much this 275 sticks out it looks a bit dumb to he honest. On top of that with 245/275 stagger setup my car wants to under-steers like a bitch in Auto-x. I feel the 255 back will help balance it out as well as clean up the look.


Bigger is not better in this case!!!!!!
