I'm going through withdrawals. I'm thinking the only way to cure it would be to get a visit from the brown Santa.

Mr. Kenchan, do you think I should change my sidewall size down to 45 if the new rims will be a bit more flush with the fender? I'm currently at 50.

Help me, tire/wheel guru!

the front will poke too much at stock height.

might want to do the swifts first, then get 19x9.5 ET25 and 19x11 ET15

(or your preferred offsets and sizes) custom order.

hummm... problem with going to a lower profile tire is that they usually end up more square than round on the shoulders. this can potentially make the wheel gap more pronunced.

wat were your forgestar sizes and offsets again?
wat are your stock tire sizes?

Fronts are 18x9 +30 and going with a 245-45 in the Pilot Super Sports.
Rears are 18x10 +16 and I'm going with a 265-40. << sales rep just said this isn't wide enough but everyone else has been telling me it is.

Stock is 225/50 and 245/40

NissanFan · 01-20-2014, 02:24 PM

anyone know the stock base 18" tire sizes? front and rear?

i got the formula in front of me... need the numbers to punch in.

NissanFan · 01-20-2014, 02:29 PM

NissanFan · 01-20-2014, 02:38 PM

as far as the rear, you will have some stretch, but since you are 8mm taller on the sidwall it should fit fine.

275/35/18 is too short, 275/40/18 is too tall, so 265/40 is closest out of the 3; therefore, it looks good to me as far as size.

XiP · 01-20-2014, 02:59 PM

NissanFan · 01-20-2014, 03:01 PM

you know i just realized how much bigger the stock base 18's front total diameter is vs the sport.

wow.

NissanFan · 01-20-2014, 03:17 PM

so im still trying to decide if i should get me an ipod-touch 5th gen, or an ipad mini. my zen mp3 player's battery died recently and cant hold a charge worth a damn...

i dont like using my droid for multi-media since i hate being interupted through the headphone or watever, while listening to music... plus, it drains the battery.

the droids have some minor but audible noise in the background too which i prefer not to have. hummmm...
