tbourner Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I think my rears were 9 1/2" and I had 285s on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 285's is pushing it IMO, but it might be ok. I'd stick to 275. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I'd stick to 265.....just to be different (although you'd be fine with 275's also imo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 285's will fit fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 285's will fit but will be over tyred and push the Tyre into an odd shape on acceleration. Stick with a comfy 265 and spend the extra on better rubber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 There's someone on here running 265/30/19 on an 8" rim !!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolarbag Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I run 285 on a 9.5"...costly as ther 19's and didnt last me very long due to my rear negative camber...I'd stick with 275s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
