Default New tires! 265/30/20 and 285/30/20 Pics!

So I finally got my new BFG KDW2s after deciding to NOT sell my rims i had them refinished again and put some new rubber one, and 20" performance tires are expensive! So anyways tell me what you guys thinkg, also these are 265s on the front! and they dont rub, the fender marks are from my old tires which were a 40 series! the back is on the lowest setting of the tein coil overs wish it could go lower, thinking about going lower on the front let me know what you guys think!

Thanks!

-George

i didn't know you're in the market for new tire. Otherwise, i would recommend the new Toyo 295x25x20 in the rear. Cheaper too. ONly $250/each.

Good decision you kept the wheels!
I would say that the ride height looks perfect, don't need to lower more..

295 would fit better on 11". Less stretch.

I agree 100% but it isnt there performance tire, i need something with good traction, these grip really well right now, no wheel spin no matter how hard i shift, it just goes, but with 500+ rwhp its going to be a diffrent story

George, I have always felt your car...

Very clean, simple yet elegant.

Just the way I like it, the Z lines are mad smooth to begin with. Good thinking on keeping the J-Lines.

Holla.

Well I feel stupid now..LOL... That's good that you are doing every thing the first time around instead of running in problems in the long run. Good luck with the turbo install.
