370z MEATY TIRE THREAD

Not nearly as silly since the rear is the same wheel and tire. There will most certainly be some "clearancing" to make this work with the suspension under load.

Hey all, I've been doing lots of reading in this sub but want to make sure I'm tracking with my ideas.

With a base 2010, I'm wanting to run Work Kiwami 19x9.5 +25 fronts 19x10.5 +12 rears, then 265/35/19 front tires 305/30/19 rears. Anything jump out?

I just went with 285/30/19 front and 305/30/19 rear. I'd rather have 265 or 275 up front I think. But itll fit.

What's the difference in tire height? If it's more than 3%. You'll have some lights going on.

at least its not as bad as my latest purchase where you gotta be even close in % to not destroy the ETS system lol

I just got a set of Hankook, 305-30 & 265—35.
After listening to the tire guy swear for 45 minutes I heard him torque the wheels and tipped him $60.
He seemed pretty happy and he did a great job

305/35/19 proper meats spring prep!

Cause rears should always be meatier than fronts

Dahawkster · 06-01-2019, 01:20 PM

Is anybody running 305/35/19 on stock sport wheels? Wondering if you have any clearance issues.

You may want to consider 305/30/19.

I would but most drag radials only come in a 35 series

If you are wanting to run this on the front. Then that's Meaty.

If on the rear. It's not.

Volk TE37SL (pressed graphite with center cap adapter and gunmetal center caps), Michelin PS 4S (265/35x19 front, 305/30x19 rear)

So I'm planning on running 19X12 305/35/19 /19X14 345/30/19. Im on bags and won't be running any excessive negative camber, just what's natural when aired out. I'm curious if I should do a 305/30/19 in the front or if a 35 series will be ok. I'm not asking in terms of clearance as the body work will be built around the wheels. I am concerned about the traction control though

That's meaty!

What tires you plan on running? You have to be within 3% difference in height.

It looks like it's between Nitto NT05R and Michilen Pilot Super Sports. I'm pretty limited in options in the sizes I need.
