Need cheap tires

90 ST · 02-01-2012, 07:05 PM

i've had great luck with the V12's also, and they are avaliable in multipul sizes if you want to go bigger. i'm going with a 245/40/19 fr. and a 305/30/19 rear next tire change.

That much stagger would cause a lot of unwanted understeer FYI

I was thinking a 265/305 might be better.
I'm going to be setting myself up with a set of the V12s as well pretty soon.

I would not mind picking up a set of theses, but they don't make 'em in 305s.

I might be second thinking the 305s though in light of some of the reading I've been doing though. It seems that, even though they might fit on our stock Sport wheels, it's likely that we aren't getting to use all of the rubber that's available due to the pinched nature of the setup.

Can anyone confirm this?

I think 265/305 would still be far too much stagger for my liking.

These tires are for a beater, not the Z. I just put back tires on the Z @ 12k.....

I want to know too, as I'm considering the 275/305 with sport rays.
