Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome
10-10-2010, 07:55 PM
i'm planning on getting 18x11.5 -3 rears, but i'm having trouble deciding between 245/40 and 255/35 (maybe 265/35????). which one will give me the most clearance, yet isn't toooooo aggressive that my wheels could possibly get damaged. my z is my daily driver, so potholes and construction zones are a constant threat to my wheels.

I have a question for those with Stance GR+ Pro coils...
I sold my Buddy Club Racing Spec coils...new Stance coils came in on Friday. When I opened the boxes, the helper springs were not already installed on the coils. Not sure if this is out of the ordinary or not...Also saw that some people complained about not being able to go "low enough" with the helper springs on. I haven't put the helper springs on yet...gonna wait until my Work's get here. Just want to get some feedback from people that have the GR+ Pro.

camber doesn't actually cause the tire to wear at an accelerated rate. it just causes uneven wear from the inner and outer sides of the tire (because with negative camber the inner edge of the tire is in contact with the ground more than the outer edge). when the inner side gets worn, just switch the tire to the other side of the car and you're good. toe is what causes accelerated wear. it also depends on what tread ware the tires are. i think i'd get about 30,000-40,000 miles out of my current tires if i was planning on having them for that long...
