  2. I was just interested as the circumference of a 325/30/19 setup up is just 0.4mm difference to a 245/45/18 setup according to willtheyfit.com.

     

    What do people do when they TT or Supercharge a zed? Do they generally go for a wider tyre or stick with what they already have?

     

    I ran a 275 rear on a charged zed, 265 on track, more than enough grip.

     

    Thanks Jetpilot.

  3. Hmm all very interesting so as there's only a certain speedd you can really get to on the roads then really a much wider wheel set will be better for me to have fun in the corners. ������

     

    Depends how you define fun. More rubber on the road will give you more grip.

     

    Well if your saying sideways or facing forwards as the fun definition then I see your point that more grip might not necessarily equal more fun.

  4. I used to run 265/10 and then 255/10 on the front of mine and it handled like a dream, I wouldnt want to go much wider though. 19x9.5 will be fine :)

    I agree mostly, what fractional amounts you "may" theoretically loose on braking and acceleration and I am talking probably 100's of a second at best you will make up in increased grip levels from wider tyres and certainly not noticeable on the road.

    You're right, maybe it's only 100ths you lose, but it's VERY noticeable in terms of feel. Everything feels heavier and clunkier, and at low speeds like you find on the roads is where you notice it the most. Heavier wheels just make the car feel lumpier and more weighty, which isn't a trait I'd want. Even the difference between Rays and OEM 18s was huge, when swapping between the two.

     

    Must stop agreeing with Ekona .......... I ran my 350 on 4 different sets of wheels and my 200Sx on more like 10 and hes right, it is noticeable, particularly on the front end, more than 100ths of a second anyway. If youre only focused on performance then the smallest, lightest wheels is the only way forward,.

     

    Hmm now I'm a bit confused... So it will be slower around corners, but you'll have more grip, but it will feel less responsive but handle well still? :unsure:
