Sam Mcgoo Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 No 245/35/19 on front and 275 35 19 on rear +1 +2 Won't do any harm to drive it, Just be aware that your Traction control and maybe your ABS won't be working. Getting new tyres all round is the best decision. Also get the best ones your budget will allow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I decided that after much reading to go with kumho ecsta ku31's for my road wheels. I have used then a good amount of miles now and gave them a bash on track at castle Combe. Mighty impressed even after coming from ps2's. I started reading on the m3 forums and this seemed to be what they guys used in the same sizes. Bought from camskill for 530 ish. Couldn't afford to keep putting ps2's on as I only get a few thousand out a set as I ended up using them on track as ps2's were so good. Decided to go with these to tempt me away from using them on track but thought it good to try them just to see how much abuse they could take. Would defo recommend them as a decent budget tyre. Excellent performance in the wet, dry and cope with heat and braking well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dano190485 Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 530ish was that for all four? I was looking at falkens again because I know a few on here use them but there around 640 mark so will have a look at the ones you have if you say there good. Cheers for the help just been getting me stressed cause need it back on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 No probs. I got them from camskill. I'm a bit anal with tyres and even after using michelin ps2's I still rate these. Very good value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RisingPower Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Isn't 245/275 a bit fat for those wheels? I mean I know it's in the maximum limits, but maybe 235/265? I think the rolling radius difference is still within tolerance there and I believe it's closer between the front and rear axle that way too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Nope. 235/35/19 275/35/19 would be fine. I ran this on my 19's or a while which are 8.5j and 9.5j Nismo recommend 245/35/19 and 275/35/19 for the nismo lmgt4's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
