Will this fit? Swifts, spacers, 265/305 re11's

Are they poking out at all or is it completely flush? It's hard to tell in the picture. Looks fantastic regardless though! Also, had a chance to really test out the handling?

Your Z looks great OP. Notice stronger understeer with the 305s?

Wheels are pretty stinkin flush, tire has a tiny poke past that but I like it
Haven't tested handling. Waiting till they are broken in. Possibly doing a mountain run in a couple weeks. Not sure yet though. They were slick leaving the shop but seem to have somewhat broken in. It was also cold as rip leaving too though

Sorry guys. Got a few more shots Long weekend though so I literally fell asleep messing with loading more pics. I tossed Instagram on it otherwise you can't see the tires themselves without the help of some lighting effects.

LMBMikeZ just know that the re11 sidewalls are stiffer and you're gonna get more bulge from the Michelin's And I think they may be a tad wider than the re11's. so no guarantees on fitment with a different tire

Any comments on handling? I'm getting ready to replace my rears and am still debating 285 vs. 305. Definitely getting RE-11s

SXZ34 · 04-03-2013, 01:31 AM

Well I can't speak for the 285, but I will probably try those next time, should fill up the fender well even better. Cheaper than the 305 and as stiff as the sidewall is on the re11bot really gonna change the contact patch that much. Vey happy with the 305 though. No complaints other than the time it took to squeeze such a wide tire onto the 10 in wheel
