Installed Larger Diameter Tires
Hey guys,I just put Continental DW tires on..They are very well priced..In 295/35/18 rears and 245/40 18 fronts,.4" diameter difference between the two...VERY Happy with ride ,feel and hook-up....Plus the rears look tuff being a bigger diameter..
I have stock rims and suspension..No spacers and no rubbing..
Before I had a .5'' difference on for 23,000+ miles and ZERO problems..
OK,most of you guys want to lower your cars and are track road racers,to each his own..Not me.
I will never push my car to the handling limits anyways,,,just straight line limits..lol..
I am not a track road racer just a street guy that wants a better ride and pot hole protection...Bent a couple of rims with stock size tires at the beginning on these great Chicago streets.......Plus better MPG now on the highway..LOL...Just sharing my experience..

I run 255/35-19 fronts with 305/30-19 rears which significantly taller than stock. No issues, even lowered. Good feature is my speedo now reads pretty much exactly according to gps to well over 240km/h.

Originally I ran RE11's currently on Toyo Proxes 1
Factory alignment specs with a max camber
Wheels are kinesis FM110, not sure the offset as I couldnt find it on the rim...8.5" front 11" rear
