hensh65 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I have 245 on 9.5 rears MPSS. Quite a stretch but not terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 see i have a 245 on my 9.5x19 on the front of mine and its ok just what to go on the rear 255/265/275 because i was going to go with toyo r1-r but they only coming in 245-40-18 and 265-35-18 well that makes the rear smaller than the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony.r123 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 PM clockwise i think he found a good online wheel/tyre size calculator when looking for his new wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 ive got a good online calculator just need some first hand advise as i was going to 245-45-18 and 275-40-18 as they have the same rolling radius as my current set up so changing coil overs etc isnt a issue but then found there are about 3 tyres on them market in that size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hensh65 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Worth looking into not having them as stretched? although you might start rubbing the arch with the ofsets being as aggresive as they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony.r123 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yup looks pretty restricted choice in 275/40/18 StevoD, camskill list 5 manufacturers but 3 are out of stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony.r123 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 i dont think my 245 on my 9.5j do stretch there dead straight if i recall There's a slight stretch with my Falken 453 245's on the 9.5j, think i have the same 19" wheel set up as you from what i remember when i saw your car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 yea thats right but im running khumos stretch is minimal tho imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundy Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Go more stretched! Can never have enough stretch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony.r123 Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 yea thats right but im running khumos stretch is minimal tho imo I know, it's really weird, my Flakens have stretch on the front, but non on the rear, hence i get rubbing. Yet most people with our wheel/tyre size comb don't. It's amazing the difference between manufacturers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
