Mattg: Thanks for the great reply, thats pretty much the conclusion i came to with regards to tyre sizes except i used this website (with other useful info) http://www.carbibles.com/tyre_bible_pg4.html
I spoke to another member who has run wide rubber and he said that it really helps to put the power down and made the car feel as if it was on rails, as they say, only negative was a slight increase in understeer. I mostly get the extra power down even with the current 245's (tiny) when in a straight line, however with any lock applied the wheels spin, but the front feels fine so i think that 275 or 285 would defo make a differance
Camskill are selling Falken 275's and 285's for the same price and the same with 245's and 255's i think.
Think i will be dynamatting the boot etc too, to help block out the exhaust noise and the extra noise from the wider rubber
H5: They do look hideousss......................... ly good,
You've done nothing stop the number of owners of these increasing by showing those pics. By the way great location, where? if i may ask.
Gotta say they look good with the GM. Amongst my favorite rims, and there not too expensice either. Im thinking of going for the v1 kit with the wheels myself, plus some other things, nothing too OTT but subtle stuff.
How have the wheels held up with wear and tear? Do the lips hold up ok? Im propbably not going to swap in the winter. Also is your lowered at all?
Thanks for the pics
Nice one lads
