what tyres availabel for 275/40 r18?

[yokomo]

im assuming this is the rear most people run for wider 9.5" rears and 245/40 up front on 8.5's.

thing is so far all i can really see available is the falken 452's and some silly khumo thingys.

so what are people with 9.5 /8.5 18's running and what do they think of them , never tried the flaken ebfore so a little weary .

ps got a rare tasty colour for the refurb of my GTR's just hope i get them back in time for trax.

275 40

I had 255s on the back & you want 245s up front

yup thats the right width for a 8.5 and the rears i 9.5 275 , your 255's musta have looked pretty strectched.

just a shame its a bank holdiay weekedn as mean i have to wait longer for the refurb , soo gona look good once there back though.

Nope not stretched at all dude. Must have a picture in my photobucket albums. I'm very intrigued to see them in what you've chosen

275/10??????????????

[yokomo]

Sorry 275 40

Why would a 255 look stretched on a 8.5 wheel? a 255 tyre is 10" wide

255 was on the rear 9.5 but point taken it should fit . What do most people run on 9.5's ?

[Ian]

255 on mine

[yokomo]

255 on mine

So 255/40 rear and 245/40 front ?

[Ian]

255/35 front & 285/35 rears

 

Mine are 19s but the same theory applies

[yokomo]

Phat ! 255 front 285 rest are you running 9.5 and 10.5 then ?

[Ian]

yeah
