hey aznmojo, just hit your cardomain up (iangto) got to say, you take awesome care of your car!!
Btw, i mentioned earlier that I have tein s techs as well, I want 285/35 for my next tire which I will be buying in a month or two, did you have any rubbing problems? Have you gotten on your car WOT and experienced no problems? I plan on going to the race track with this setup, and wanted to know if the Teins squat any under WOT to possibly make it rub? I watched a video of me racing this S2k, and I didnt notice the rear squatting any, but just wondering if you knew, later!!!

Congrats, yeah I had the same problem, with stock suspension it only seemed to rub on bumps and dips. BFG KDW's have a larger and thicker sidewall than most tires which causes the rubbing, it's a simple fix with a small cut and make sure they put undercoating on the cut to prevent rusting. Had a shady problem with Wheel Discount they promised me it would fit and everytime I called to ask how to fix they would give me the "runaround"
Not to metion those bastards overcharged my credit card and never refunded the $$$! Worst place to buy wheels EVER! But that was a while back too, sorry just ranting.

Sweet rims! I got the same set but in Mercury Silver.
19x8.5 front & 19x10.5 rear. I wanted 9.5 in the front but they weren't in stock. :-/
I went with the 285's in the rear as well, but got T1-R's which seem to have slightly less bulging than the KDW's.
Chris at F1 Motosports hooked me up as well. Best prices and service.

No i did not have any problems whatsoever running Falken FK451's in 285/35/19 on the rear with no fender mod and dropped on teins. The teins are pretty decent, but if you want to track, probably should look into coil overs.

BFG is much wider even for the same tire size... I don't know why.

Hey Wired think you can get a close up pic of your rear wheel, and asnmojo can you get one of yours? It would really help me out when I buy my next tires, plus we can see how much different the sidewalls are, the BFG's are the best for traction right? how the the Falkens compare, I want a NICE 285/35 that has good traction....thanks for the help!

Falkens have a rounder sidewall for the same 285/35/19 size. I kinda like that look better as opposed to a straight up sidewall.
For the people that rolled their fenders already, how come you guys didn't go up to 295+?

Nice Hot Wheels Wired 24/7 I really like the BFG. I just got them too after reading this post I got brave and did it by cuting instead of rolling. But, I just put the BFG KDW NT 295/35/19 on my Racing Hart CX there 19x10 with the tein S teck spring. I don't have any issues with them at all. I got to say that it looks really mean from the back.

You cut your fenders yourself? Hope you sealed it up bro, I would be afraid of rusting.
How does the 295 tire fit on the 10 rim? Does it look good, or kind of funky, I thought 285 was the biggest you should go on a 10inch rim. How about some pics!?
