Hey,

Is 285 too much for a 9.5 wheels?

I am lower on hotchkiss, any fender rolling?

on a 19" wheel, I feel that the 285/35 is too tall of a tire...

18 sure no problem...

as far as fender rolling, depends on the offset of the wheel its on...

 

I recommend a 305/30/19 or a 295/30/19 on a 19x9.5-10.5" wheel. Works great. 18's are a different story.

 

I have 285/35 on a 19" rim it looks perfect, those that feel its too tall like that stupid small sidewall look. You can definetely go with a 285 on a 9.5" rim depending on the brand it won t"buldge" much if any at all. If you have +24 or more agressive offsets you willl likely want to have your fenders rolled, if its +25-+35 you'll likely be ok....

 

I can't seem to figure out what would be good on a 10 inch rim. I want 285 but i cant find matching pairs of 255 for a 9inch rim. This is pretty aggrevating.

I basically have (will have..) 9 x 18 and a 10 x 18 w. low offsets...18+ and 20+ i think R/F respectively.

 

Im running 285/35/19 on a 9.5" wide and i like the extra sidewall and meat the tires have. I have a 22 offset and they fit fine w/ no rubbage.

Aston Healey looks hot on 10 inch rims... Just joking with ya...

 

Wa2good is completely right...you can have that setup on the car, and it looks *****in, no rubbing or fender rolling is required

 

On 18s or 19s?

 

both... I am running 285's on my stock 18's in the rears

 

damn. im back to teh same dilemma

I'll hit up the local tire shop and see what they can do for me once i get some wheels. :\

 

Not looking good enough, this is easy...

BFG KDWII 255/35 and 285/35 19-I have em, they perform well and look great tirerack and discount tire have them

 

im running 285/35/19 toyo T1Rs on a 9.5 rim with +24mm offset and it looks perfect.

 

Can some of you guys post pics of your 285/35/19's on 9.5" rims?

There is one tire company, I think BFG that has a 285/35/19 with a tire diameter of 26.7", which is the same as the stock 245/45/18's, so the sidewall, "should" in theory look ok/normal.

All of the other manufacturers that I found have diametrs of 26.9" and higher, which I think would look too tall.

 

I have 285/35/19 on GTc OEM Volk rears (10" width) and they look perfect, not just too me but to others as well. Any shorter and wheel/tire combo would look odd.

OP, look at the spec sheets of the tire manufacturer you're going with. They list recommended wheel widths for each of their tire sizes. In my case, 10" falls in the middle of Toyo's recommended width so it looks great. I, or anyone else, can have no idea what it will be for you.

 

Here is a few pics with a Z and some G's with 285/30/19 's in the front and a 305/30/19's in the rear. It looks and feels perfect IMO.

 

Ok so i decided 285/35/18 and 255/40/18.. Will that work fine? I have no VDC, so only TCS is an issue.

 

Should work fine IMO, try 265/35/18, instead of the 255/40, might look better.

 

I have 275/35 on 18x9.5... your 285's should be fine
