RedM Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I'm thinking of maybe 265 rear and 245 front. How would this effect handling? Would they roll on heavy cornering? Apart from extra traction (I presume) I'm a bit partial to that look when the tyres are slightly wider than the wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 those tyre sizes should be fine as i know a lot of people that use those mate. with regards to handling i doubt it would roll much more but probably make tramlining worse. EDITED: it could result in slightly more road noise as well although you probably wouldn't notice it i don't think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I used to run 275s on the back and 245s up front, used this combo on road and track and prefered it over the standard ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockys96 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 thats rather fat rubber on standard wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I use to run 275 on stock rears too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any issues with fitting them (rears) or turning (fronts)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, just a very light scrape on full lock when reversing off my stupid drive - that's with the Eibach springs on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
