Thread: biggest tire size for stock 5 spoke gp rims

I'm buying new tires and 225 isn't gonna grip to well when your 300whp >: so I might run 15's if I can run fatter tires

well could i run like a 245 on stock rim? and i really like cragars so i might get one of those ill update the data on them if they clear the brake setup

i think i like these cooper sport a/s z rated tires

what size wheel tires fill in the gap and are more flushed with the fenders?

TireCrawler.com If someone can guarantee a fit I'm buying 2 this week and 2 next week

get some 245-45-18 with some achilles atr sport they fill the gap nicely and grip like mad thats what im runnin on my gtp

I like the look of the stock 16s and ima powder coat them black eventually

then keep stock 225/60/16 or +10 and go 235 and go for a quality tire with a temp and traction rating of A-AA and treadwear well above 300 and youll b happy as long as your fragrance of choice is not burning rubber

why powder coat??? get some rustoleum enamel spray paint and enamel crystal clear coat and it looks the same if you do it right

I think the 245-50-r16s should fit they have AA traction rating and A for temperature and have a tread of 400 and they're all season

ok ill buy 4 rs3-a and 2 drag radials are the rs3-s drag radials?

I made this decision a long time ago, if you want traction the right way to do is buy an extra set of rims with slicks or drag radials. No street radial is going to compare.

There are some nice ones with decent traction.

But they're typically 150-250 a tire even heavily discounted.

They won't compare, but you will have worlds more traction than a cheap all season.

the rs3-s is a summer only ultra high performance tire and i wish someone culd tell me a good deal on the racing street tires not slicks but racing street tires

Nittos or et streets.
