Tire and Wheel fitment Q&A

lifesnotfair · 01-29-2006, 05:04 PM

I have 18x9.5 rear with Dunlops, and 18x8.5 front with Michelins.. haven't even looked at the treadwear, I'm not caring about that for now, the car is N/A auto.

I'm running 94 Supra wheels (16x8) with 225/50 Cooper up front, and 94 TT wheels (17x9.5) with 265/40 Falkens in the rear, good traction.

i think cooper cobra is a good tire for supra. i were using (2) 215 60r14 front (2) 235 60r14 rear on my mk2... so its good launch for me... and beside that its wide too....

Cooper tires seem perform well. I also have them the rear of my BMW M3, good traction and fairly quiet, good price too.

Here are my rims. The white ones on the car are Advan AVS Model 5, the new ones are WedsSport SA-70 (they are actually for the EVO).

Question about rears...

Is 265/35/18 too big of a tire for an 18x9 rim? Will that stick out alot on the back wheels?

I'm planning those with 25 or 35/35/18 for my front 18x8's.

So basically, is 265 too wide for rears?

I got 265/40 17 on the back of my 90 Turbo on '94 TT wheels. No problems since they're correct offset. I've seen people with 275/40 in the back also.
