ayo son, this season im goin 5 lug and with that better fitment. for the fronts im runnin 17 x 10 + 15 and rears 18 x 10.5 + 12. I don’t want to run a crazy stretched tire, a mild stretch would sum it up it best. Was thinking of running 245 or 255 /40 on the fronts and a 275 or 285 / 35 on the rears. Im not 100% sure of how much of a stretch that will give. Lookin for some sound advice, if anyone running similar sizes could post there tire specs up and some pictures would be hood. Cheers ---

i like those sizes… i run 245 / 275 on my coupe and will run 255/275 if i keep her. Mind you, i do believe that it might be more advantagous to run less tire but a better tire… i run RT615’s still. ---

not to sure on what tire i plan on running yet, just narrowing down the sizing. I’m leaning towards direzza z1’s, don’t plan on cheaping out. I want to make it to a couple of track days next season and stick to the track ---

> [@a\_ahmed](#): > > I’ll trade you my 17x9.5+18 for your 18x10.5+12 so I can use bigger tires please… thanks for the offer, but I’m gunna have to pass. a 275/35 is more then enough for the power im putting down, a 245/40 was fine last season, and the season before. 275 will be enough.
