^^^ thats what size they should be.

 

+1

Yea that sounds right.

+1 on the PS2s also
They will be my next set of tires whenever I
get a chance to switch out my crappy Nitto 555s

 

thanks, any other tire brand?
khumo? falken?

 

where the hell did you find Bronze LMgts??? gotta see some pics

 

can u go bigger on the rear like 285??? or 295???

 

I would do the PS2's in the recommended size for those wheels (245/40/18 front, 275/40/18 rear). PS2's are the best overall tire for that size.

 

I WENT TO NTB TODAY... the guy was like put 245-40-18 in front and 275-35-18 in the rear because then the car will look even;, he says if you go with the 275 40 18 in rear your car will look higher from top...what should i dooo

 

i have them. the recommended size is 245 40 18 fr and 275 40 18 rear.
i put the nitto 555 extreme. cheap and last long. no complaints yet. knock on wood.

 

I remember reading on a post here that 255/40-18 in the front will also maintain the stagger. They speculated that nismo prob just recommended the 245/40 b/c it was more readily available and cheaper. Apparently someone had done the math and that was actually a better front tire size. Seems it would reduce understeer as well. I'm tempted to go that route.

soo many choices, i still havent narrow down my decision help!!

 

The Nismo LMGT4 is specifically designed for the "Z" and the "G". Nismo recommends 245/40/18 Front and 275/40/18 rear. What's the problem

I run Dunlop SP9000s on mine, and am completly satisified.

how are toyo T1's? are thyey good...

i guess i just want to get the reliable tires for the money, i am on a budget since i spent alot on the wheels

 

I am running the 245/40/18 F and 275/40/18 rear on same size wheels (Kazera-A) for two years, no problems. (Except no traction)

 

What would a 285 look like on the rear???? and if I did that would going with a 35 ratio vs 40 help with bulge if there will be any at all???

Im gonna try the KDW-2's and they have all the sizes I want

 

how are toyo T1S.. any one know

 

any one
