As soon as my stock tires need replacement, I'm opting for 285's in front and 325's in rear. A friend of mine has 285 Corvette spec tires in the rear with a 15mm spacer on them. It looks really good.

Got some lowering room.

I just placed an order for 325-30-19 Potenza RE11. I will put my rear Potenza S001 on the front. Hopefully they will work well together! :driving:

The RE-11's have a ton of grip so be expecting some under steer.

I can manage under steer, I used to autoX FWD.

I was content with just buying 245/285 Bridgestone S-04 PP, but it's not that much more for 285/305.

Get the RE11's. Much better grip.

What do you guys think about RE-11 285 or 275 with 305s? I have new 305s in the rear and will need front tires soon!

If you are going back to Deals Gap. Get the biggest tires that will fit in the front. :driving:

Hotrodz 09-15-2015 10:28 PM

LOL, you know it brother...she goes in a straight line here most of the time as there are not many twisties around here. I am planning on doing my first couple of track days before ZDAYZ. I got to stretch her legs...285s will square her up some and take some of the push out I would presume, but I'm over 600whp now, so we will see!:p

Spooler 09-16-2015 07:11 AM

Go 285/35 on the front. You can always change the rear out to 325's when you wear your 305's out.
