Default My new shoes mounted!!

Upgraded the shoes to Volk RE30's in Formula Silver (which I was trying to sale also but decided to keep). And the laces are Michelin Pilot Sport, 255/35/19 and 285/35/19. Droped on GF210's.









Comments welcome.

without knowing the width of the wheels that is hard to say. but seeing how stretched the tires are they obviously are not the right size for the wheel. if you decide to do any heavy cornering you run the risk of eating your sidewall and having premature tire failure. and since there is no tread on the edges to give it any grip you run the risk of losing any traction you might have with cornering as well. just some things to think about

Wheel spec is 19x10 F and 19x11 R. I seen Z's run a slightly stretched tire all the time. I have seen more aggressive tire stretch on Z's also with same widths. I guess it is all about personal perference. Also I don't plan on tracking or racing it. Mostly for show. My next tire will most likely be 30 series set up.

just an observation from your recent posts....shall I link them all for you as I'm quite sure the general consensus would be I'm not dishing out personal attacks that aren't warranted.

What's wrong w/ running a 285 on a 11" wheel? Seriously...I've seen way more stretched than that and maybe that's what the OP was going for.

So before you knock him down another notch maybe you should just not reply....

no need to link them since they have no relevance to this thread at all. also show me where i "knocked him down a notch" maybe you should do the same since your first post in this thread was to jump right in on mine. i guess everyone (including yourself) missed the aprt in hsi original thread where it states "comments welcome".

no, but a 255 on a 10" wheel is (and the pics show this as well, both front and back). you can see that it is stretched and if you can't, you are blind

wheels and tires look sick man, plus since your on gf210's its good that you got those sizes or you might rub your fender (unless its rolled).

oh and "ZO4", carlos305 wasn't saying you hated the wheels. He was saying your a "hater" using it as an adjective. exp That is a tall building. tall being the adjective ( word to describe the noun ). you(ZO4) being the noun and "hater" describing you
