This thread, the link I posted and a ruler plus you going outside and checking for yourself should be all that you need. Give a man a fish, he eats for a day, teach a man to fish and he eats for a life time.

you have point, but im sure somone have already done what you just said probably even you. wouldnt be that hard to just post it up after they done the calculations by getting that ruer and, offset calculator going outside to measure it and vice versa. still would have save time for a lot of ppl with the info rather than having to go outside and measure it yourself

so I am looking at some 305s for my stock rays

found a set of 305/25/19 I can get off a porsche buddy, tires still have 75-80% tread left and it's a steal of a deal! Only worry cause it is little over one inch less sidewall then OEM what do you guys think? I guess it means less there to rub on anything

Should I say F-it and roast them off this coming driving season like I do to all my tires......

Alright, I'm going to pull the trigger tonight or tomorrow if I can get some feedback. So will it fit? I am lowered on H&R Springs.

Option 1
19x9.5 +20 255/35/19
19x11 +18 305/35/19

Option 2
19x9.5 +20 275/35/19 or 275/30/19
19x11 +18 305/35/19

I'm looking to do a square setup and buy TE37's off a friend's Evo.

(4x) 18x9.5 +35
with either 15mm or 25mm spacers in the rear.

I'm lowered on swifts. Will this fit? Also, looking for advice on some meaty tires to throw on them.

9.5" is pretty thin for the rear of our cars, but I'd put the 25mm in the rear and 10mm-15mm up front. With those specs I'd go with something like the stock nismo tires being 245/40---285/35.

I'm looking for a set of tire for the Rays Forged 19" which came with the sport package. But I realized that they are staggered

Wheel Size: 19x9 (front), 19x10 (rear)

Do I have any trouble running all the wheel as 275 x 35 x 19 ? Will they fit ?

Thanks.

On stock roadster 19" sport rays can I go 305/30 in rear and 275/35 in front with no spacers? And any change if I lowered the car 1.25"? Anyone have pics of a similar set-up???

I am thinking of getting either 305/30/18 or 305/35/18 for the rear of my 09 base model. Ive seen alot of drivers have no problems with a similar setup, but they were using 19's.. any problems with using this setup?

Yes you can fit a 305x35x18 on the rears, no rubbing and no spacers needed.
