]I AM GOING TO PURCHASE WHEELS NEXT WEEK SHOULD I GO WITH 19 or 20
AND TYPE OF TIRES DO YOU GUYS RECCOMEND I WAS THINKING NITTO's

 

Hey, welcome to the boards. The people here are great, and there is help with just about every topic you need covered. If you are in the market for wheels/tires, why don't you look up Volk Racings? I have the SF Challenges in 19x8.5 F and 19x10.5 R with Toyo T1R's. Here's a few pics for ya.

 

go with 20's if you have the money...........i also suggest toyo t1r's.........use the search function

 

tire size???

 

20"s for sure.

20x8.5 or 20x9 fronts with 245/35/20
20x10.5 rears with 275/30/20

 

If you don't plan on taking it to the track, I say go for 20's if you've got the cash... if you go for 19's, make sure you get a large rear lip & drop it!

Here's 19's (stock) vs 20's HRE 540R's (20x9 front & 20x10.5 rears) on Falken ST-115




Good luck!

 

20s of course.

 

if you can spare the cash, go with the 20".

 

I am rolling on 20's with no regrets. The tires were cheaper than the 19's.

You don't have to use all caps when you post.

 

I'm wondering why do many forum members suggest 275 rear tires on 10.5" rims rather than 285. I'm asking this because after some calculation, 285/30 actually retains the overall diameter on the rears better.

 

I don't, I suggest 285s.

 

Would the 285's in the rear rub at all on 20x10's. I just bought 20" rims too and contemplaiting wether to buy 275 or 285's for the rear, only concern is the rubbing and by the way I have an 06 coupe.

 

Recommended for the toyo T1R

245/35ZR20 8.0-8.5-9.5" - 776 RPM this set up your off by -20 RPM
275/30ZR20 9.0-9.5-10.0" - 782 RPM this set up your off by +4 RPM
&
255/35ZR20 8.5-9.0-10.0" - 769 RPM this set up your off by - 27 RPM
285/30ZR20 9.5-10.0-10.5"- 776 RPM this set up your off buy -2 RPM

The front tire rpm will be off too much from stock you will notice a diffrence

Combo
245/30ZR20 8.0-8.5-9.0" - 801 RPM this set up your off by +5 RPM
285/30ZR20 9.5-10.0-10.5"- 776 RPM this set up your off buy -2 RPM
would be nice too but i am not sure if 245 and 285 will work properly

but the best set up would be

245/30ZR20 8.0-8.5-9.0" - 801 RPM this set up your off by +5 RPM
275/30ZR20 9.0-9.5-10.0" - 782 RPM this set up your off by +4 RPM

On a 05 6MT or 06 model stock is
225/40ZR19 7.5-8.8-9.0" 796 Rotations per mile
245/40ZR19 8.0-9.0-9.5" 778 Rotations per mile

FYI the middle number is the suggested rim diameter
