Nick_MSM Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 After some tyres asap, new alloys have arrived with no tyres even though I ordered them with 9x19 and 10.5x19, after T1R's probably, anywhere online, next day deliveryish and reasonably priced?

Chesterfield Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Nick, Ive not had call to purchase any just yet, but we do have a discount of 5% with blackcircles.com, they seem to have quite reasonable prices by all accounts. As I say, Ive not purchased any yet, so cant say Ive done a massive ammount of research - Im sure someone will be along shortly to advise.

Removed Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 try Andy off this forum and also camskill they have good prices! suggest you go 19x35x245 front and 19x35x275 back PS can't believe you didn't get them with tyres, hope you get your money back!

letank87 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Try mytyres.co.uk They will deliver tyres free of charge to your home or work and they offer a 30 day no quibbles money back guarantee if you change your mind. (so long as you haven't fitted the tyres of course!) In my experience, they have always been cheaper than blackcircles but I'm not sure what effect the 5% discount would now make. It's another option at the end of the day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_MSM Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 Cheers for the help, all sorted Val gone for T1R's, 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 £840 fitted/balanced etc. The company are paying for them so thats ok In stock tomorrow morning so I should be rolling on new rims in the afternoon! Also...Having a laser geometry done (if it looks good and I decide not to fit the Teins!) does anyone know what the standard geometry specs are? Thanks!

Removed Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 i have them on the manual but it's @ home so hopefully someone else will post them up for you PS why did you go 30 in the back??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_MSM Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 Your slacking Val! Went with 30s because that was recommended to me by a few people. Just impatient now and want them fitted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 IIRC 30 is not the best option for 19" with regards to rolling radius etc.... let me double check. Plus even thinner sidewall... you are going to feel those potholes mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 http://www.350zmotoring.com/modules.php ... ame=Wheels wow you are gonna have an 82.5 sidewall, as opposed to a 96.25 of "standard" upgrade measures of 275x35x19. I guess the speedo error will be higher too mate, wonder if the VDC will get confused too, hopefully not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesterfield Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Depends where the speedo gets its reading from. Anyone know? If it is the rears, then the speedo will be reading fast by about 4.4% or when your speedo says 70mph, you will actually be doing about 66.9mph You can use this tool here: http://www.rochfordtyres.co.uk/tyrecalc.asp Standard tyres on rear 245/45 R18 = rolling radius of 2129.06mm New tyres on rear 275/30 R19 = rolling radius of 2034.49 At least you will be safe at speed cameras as you will be going slower than your speedo says (if it reads from the rear wheels).

Nick_MSM Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 Thanks guys, should be ok Val, at least I hope so as I was told to get that size by the place I got wheels from! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
