Which tire size?
Which tire size?
Hey guys,
My next mod i think is going to be a set of wheels and tires. I have a track pack 5.0 and want to make sure the charcoal black AMR's will fit over the brembos. Im going to go with a staggered set up 19x8.5 up front and 19x10 in the back. I am lowered 1.5 inches on frpp k springs. Does anyone know if i can go with a 305/30/19 tire in the back and something like a 265/35/19 tire up front? Im leaning towards the nitto invos because i heard great things about them. Also, will the 305s be close to the stock diameter because i like how the wheel gap is right now on the drop and don't really want a smaller diameter tire. I go to the strip maybe once or twice a month when the weather is nice so my main concern is just putting down the power on the street. Thanks for your help.
EDIT: DId some research throughout the day. I think i come to the conclusion that i may go with the Goodyear Eagle F1 asymmetric 2 tires. 265/40/19 up front and 295/35/19 out back on charcoal AMR 19s. That comes very close to the stock diameter of the TP tires. What do you guys think?

Yeah and I wanted an xxx /35/19 to keep it as close to the 27 inch diameter of the stock tires and I feel like with the Goodyear eagle f1 asymmetrics I will get that.
305 on a 10" wheels should mount up fine...sometimes it depends on the tire. I run 315 on a 10.5 and the shoulders are nice and square.
It will depend on the tire, some are wider than advertised. I have heard that manufacturers sometimes use the mold for a different tire to make the tire you bought. Especially when it come to low volume sizes like a 305. For example they may have used a 315 mold to make a 305. Which would end up giving a tire that is a little wider than most 305's.
