Nismo,
What size tire are you running in the front, and what are the specs of your T37's?

Nice,
just out of curiosity how does it ride, I heard 255/305 is too big of a stagger, they recommended I got 265/285 at a local tire shop. How does it drive with that tire set up?

it is not on the car yet, I am not going for "ride quality" though, If that was the style I wanted I would have bought a caddy. As far as it being 2 much of a stagger, I dont think that should make a huge difference, stock is 245/275 I am only two sizes wider. I will be sure to post a thread when everything is on my car when the volk's get here and let you know though!

I ordered a set of SS' and they should be here tomorrow. 255/295. I wanted 265 in the front, but they do not make them, and I wanted 295 in the rear since I wanted them to fill the wheels a bit more. If in the end it's too much, I'll go back to 285.

If that tire size setup isn't ideal, you can probably offset it by adjusting your coilovers which is good.

chris
looking at getting the PSS for my Volks, I was thinking of going 265/35/19 front. 285/35/19 rear... but if they dont make the the 265 I guess I can stick to 255... but my question is should I stay at 285 or go 295 for the rear. Did you end up getting the 255/295 set up?how does it drive? not too big of a stagger to cause understeer?
