Guys with Sport Wheels, Post up the tire sizes you have switched to.
What up guys. I did a search and could not find any thread like this. I wanted to see what size tires front and rear you guys have put on your stock sport wheels. Also if your running spacers let me know, I'm planning on going 15 front 20 rear. Thanks guys.
|
you know it has been posted before a few times, but muddled up in other threads. Someone should really compile this info for base, sport and nismo wheels and then get it sticky'd. I cant help you out myself as I never changed the size or added spacers to mine.

Yea thats what I was hoping to with this thread. I looked at about 15 20 pages in this section and could only find a few things. |
275/35 & 305/30 Hankook Ventus. 15mm in front & 20mm on the back.
|
255front/285rear v12s with 15mm front/20mm rear spacers H&R
|
285 35 19 all around

i think quite a few are running a 305 on the stock sport.
but dont worry aout spacers yet. get the tires first then see how much you wanna go on spacers. |
Stock front and 305/30 Hankook Ventus in the rear.
20/25mm spacers. Swift springs. No problems. The tire in the rear bulges at the sidewall a bit more than I would like- I'm considering running 295/35's next time. |
255/35 & 295/30 Hankook Ventus
No spacers. I was originally concerned about these tires simply because they are half the cost of Pilots or Pontenzas. But after putting 5k on em I have full confidence that they will hold the road when I expect them to. |
I've had a few...
stock size tires with 32mm spacers R, 26mm spacers F 285/35/19 V12 R (stock front) with 20mm R, 15mm F I don't like the V12s when compared with the OE Bridgestone. I can definitely feel the weaker sidewall. |

265/285 RE-11's, no spacers. Great tires and I think they fit the sport rims better than stock.

Subscribed! Too.

I'm picking up a set of sport wheels soon so I'll be shopping for tires in the next few months as my base tires ware out. Definitely looking forward to see what the majority is. I'm thinking 255/285 V12s. Definitely want to go wider than stock unless there's a huge price difference.

If you like squishy, then by all means get them that size. :) |
245/40/19 and 285/35/19 for Nismo rims. Continental DWs for grip and without being "squishy". :)
|
"squishy" feeling eh...I may just fork over the $1200 and get the RE-11
|
Sooooooooooooooo many choicessssssssssssssssssss.. LOL. I'm leaning towards the RE-11 but they dont make them in 295's for the rear. Guess I'll have to go with 285 or 305.
|
In... stockers need to go SOON!
|
IMO, don't get 305s. If the tire sticks out at all it doesn't look very good. My stock wheels are 6.5in :shakes head: and my old tires bulged a little bit and didn't look good.
Do you have a need for the 305s? Besides stance? You shouldn't be able to tell the difference between a 295 and 305. Even as far as handling is concerned; it will be neglegible. I'm hearing people like the stock tires, why not just get those in 295s? |

Bridgestone RE-11
20f/25r Spacers -2 camber all around 285/35/19 Rear: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...i/352551ea.jpg 265/35/19 Front: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...i/4e836b52.jpg Love how the rear looks. The front looks very nice too in terms of width. The only thing that i didnt like too much is that my front fender/tire gap got a little bigger since I went from a 40 sidewall to a 35 in the front. |

Running H&R bolt on for the front, h&R stud replacement rears.
Rear spc camber kit. No camber kit for the front |
Does the bolt actually give you any camber in the front?

275/30s up front 305/30s rear v12s with 15mm fr/20mm swift springs
|
I'm going with RE-11's in the next couple days. For sure going with 285's in the back but it's a toss up between 255/265 for the fronts. Leaning towards 255's
|
My tires are getting installed this Sat. RE-11's 265F 285R
|
A lot of guys running wider tires up front. Have any of you noticed any vibration (in the steering wheel) due to a wider tire?
|
^^reduced gas mileage
Looking at the stock 245's it seems a 265 is a bit too wide and would be sloppy.....? The rear's almost looked stretched with 275's and would be cured with a 285. I definitely think I'm doing 255/285's. |
I had RE-11s with 265s up front and 285s in the rear with no problems. I am no longer on the stock wheels but will stay at 265s in the front and move to 305s in the rear...

Ya looking at your mods it is what I assumed.
|
Just went to 285/35/19s all around. Stock Sport wheels, stock suspension. No spacers. Feels great on the street; haven't been able to get to the track or AutoX yet so no great feedback yet. No complaints about road manners here with the wider fronts.
