So now Im feeling like I need to purchase some front tires for ZDAYZ. Im currently running a 245 on a 9" wheel up front. Id like to go bigger in the front but arent sure how much bigger I can go. I think a 265 would be much to wide, correct?? Could I get away with a 255 on a 9" wheel?? 255mm converts to just about 10", doesnt seem like it would look right, or am I wrong??? Im trying to make the purchase tonight so quick replies will be greatly appreciated, and repped:tiphat:

Road and Track often misses the mark. They gush over unaffordable cars and anything Porsche/BMW makes, yet overlook Nissans in general, it seems. I have no idea why I continue to subscribe.

:iagree: Although R&T is the one I read the most between R&T, C&D and MotorTrend. I also found R&T always bias to bimmer and honda. But some of their columns are worth to read.

hey mr. alcheng, dont worry. that's only an opinion from one or a few persons at a publication. only magazine spec racers get biased by these opinions (magazines and videos) and say dumb things as if they know anything about owning a special car. lol :icon17:

:iagree: Mr.kenchan, I think the only number-spec I pay attention the most is the figure stands next to the "$' sign... :bowrofl:

You can run a 255/40 on a 9" wheel, but that's the widest that's recommended. :tup:
I wanted to run a 255/40 285/35 but it just didn't pan out for me. :)

I'm usually a 12:30-1am kinda guy myself. :ugh2:

So I would ask you guys to talk me out of buying mods, but I'm sure you'll just encourage it. So, what do you recommend I get with a $1100 budget? I still haven't decided if I'm spending it yet but would appreciate some suggestions.

Awwwww yeah! First question: go fast, cosmetic or combo of both? Oh yeah, you're absolutely right...I'm definitely going to encourage it! :)
