g_torphins Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Ive got the plughole alloys(8" all round) and want to use ***/40/18 + ***/40/18 as they are much cheaper than the 45s in PS2s for some reason. Can I just use 225/40/18 front and 245/40/18 rear? It's keping the 20mm stagger but my rolling radius is affected. Affected too much though?? Your thoughts and alternate suggestions are appreciated o wise ones! TIA Quote
Guest prescience Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 255/40/18 and 275/40/18 would be perfect - I got that from here http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=62 - doubt they would be cheaper though Edit - would look pretty cool mind Quote
g_torphins Posted January 24, 2006 Author Posted January 24, 2006 Yep, 255/40 + 275/40 works but my skinny 8" alloys won't cope with 275!? Price difference for 40s over 45s is Quote
