masterfett Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Ok guys this is one for anyone who is running on 17" rims. Basically i have just purchased some new wheels and with them they had 265 40 17 tyres on the rear, i previously had 245 45 17's on the rear on my old alloys. now my old wheels looked to visibly fill the arches quite nicely, but i am unsure as to if it was the tyre size or the fact my car is black and the alloys where black, and it was just an illusion! does anyone have any pictures of 255 45's on there supra? or photo's of your car, what size tyres lowered or not etc. I am also fairly sure my car has been lowered as fronts (centre of wheel to arch) is 355mm and rear is 366. cheers in advance.

Rajinder Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I run bridgestone and R888 at 255/40/17 on the rears. The car has been lowered and the geo has been set up for track use. I know you wanted photo of 255/45/17 but you will get some idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 The tyre widths mean very little, it all depends on the width and the offset of the old wheels vs. the new wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterfett Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 Hmm well offset and wheel widths are the same on both, must be my mind playing tricks on me. Still interested in photos and set ups others habe tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
