Gentlemen, I have not posted in a while, but I am about to obtain a set of wheels....

20x10 on front
20x11 on rear

question regarding tires... what would be ideal sizes?

Front Options are:

265/30/20
265/35/20
275/30/20
275/35/20

Rear Options are:

305/25/20
315/35/20
325/25/20
325/30/20


Tires would be either Honkook V12, Continental DW, or Dunlop Maxx GT

Any help is appreciated.

Hello, my name is dbayb and i am new to the group..
I am looking at 20x9.5 with 255/30 and 20x11 with 305/25..
I dont want to do any adjustments except changing wheels..

also in the meantime i wanted to put larger tires on the stock
wheels of 18x8 and 18x9, what are the widest tires that wil fit
on the STOCK wheels??

Desperatly need new tires on the Z, looking at either Michelin super sports or sport cups. Would really like to get the sport cups. These are going on stock rims tho (sports package 19")

So would these fit? not rub? look good?

Michelin Pilot Sport Cup
front- 265/35 R19 XL
rear- 305/30R19 XL

theres a guy who just posted up 305's with a 20mm spacer and if it perfect. although he was dropped on H&R. you should be fine without spacers.

You can do 25 mm in the front if you want I think someone has that, but I have 20 mm and it fits just fine. The problem is if you are lowered you may scrap the fender lining/bumper tabs. I only experience that on hard banking turns or deep bumps. If I adjust the dampening on my kw's it may go away buy I haven't had the chance to do that yet.

I also have 20mm in the front and dropped on BC Coils. I get the same rub and it's kinda driving me crazy. I've set the dampening to full hard and it still does it on hard banks and going up steep driveways. How low are you front ground to top of wheel arch? I made the mistake of not measuring the stock height and not knowing how low I actually went. But from the ground to the top of the wheel arch in the front im sitting at 26 and a quarter.

Reaper, these will fit just fine. This is a popular choice among the guys who are still using the stock 19"s...although a 275 up front is more common because it's only .5% off the stock diameter, rather than 1.5% off with the 265.

The 20" wheels will fit depending on the offsets.

The widest you can go on the stock wheels would be a 245/45/18F and 275/40/18R.

I'm running a 19"x10"F and 19"x11"R and am using 275/35/19F and 305/30/19R. I'd suggest the same for you unless you will be running aggressive offsets up front...then you might want to go down to a 265.

This is my current setup info stock ride height 20X9.5+35 F. 20X10.5+10 R .. 255/30/20 F .. 305/25/20 R

265/35/20 F.. 305/30/20 R .. would these sizes be no good?

That will work fine, but why not do a 275/35/20 in the front?

I just love how fat the 305 looks, and the one time i went to the track i could just nail it with no spin.

I meant front

[KaienZ34]

Would that be better ?? I don't know much about tire sizes.
