heres the link to the auction. I am about to pull the trigger on some Volk GTS's and thought the widest I could go was 285 with the +18 offset. How can this guy fit a 305 on the rear and still have a good size lip? I realize these are OZ's and not Volks, but it seems that everyone stays with 285 or 275 for tire width in the rear. I like the lip size but ultimatle want a fatttt tire in the back.

Any suggestions or comments?

 

A 10.5" wheel should have a minimum of a 295 tire on it. I have a 295 tire on a 10" +25 wheel and with a rollld lip it does not rub.

i run a 305/25/ 20 on axis mods and with the fender rolled i could even use a 1/2" spacer!! could even stuff a 335 if you got the offset right. mine is lowered about 2.5" also

 

Heres my 305 with a 3 3/4" lip. Granted it's a 305/30/19 not 20" wheels. I'm sure you could get a bigger lipped wheel than mine.

 

Ok, thanks guys for the replys. overZealous1...do you have any pics from the back of what that tire looks like?

 

my car is wedged in my shop right now and doing a test fit on some new wheels (20x11) so i can't get pics right now. but that 305 will get mounted on the new wheels in a week or so and i will have pics then.

 

You guys would never get around to running around with your rubber bands in NYC.

Damn I envy you bastards and your nice roads.

 

just look at the pic!! it looks like poop. i had a 285/30 on a 11" and it looks brilliant.

 

I run a 305-30-20 on a 10" axis Shine I think its +24 with the fenders rolled on B&G springs.It looks absolutly perfect

 

Those look sweet, but I don't even wanna know how much those tires cost each! eeks.

 

Thanks for all the replys, and I'll be waiting on those pics!!

 

Are you talking about fitting 305 on 19" rim or 20" rim? Volk GTS's are not made in 20" last time i checked. So hopefully you are meaning 305 on on a 19" rim. Either way you should be able to fit it. I am lowered an inch with 295/30 R20 +22offset (92mm lip) and could probably even put a small spacer in.

 

I don't know if 305's will fit with that spoiler.

 

Ahh...I am talking about 19 inch. I think my homework is complete. I have decided to go with the +17 +18 and a 285 in the rear. I just gotta have that big lip!! Thanks for all the replys and I'll post pics in 4 months.

 

What is the size of your front tires?

I'm thinking of changing my back tires to 295 30/19, but leaving the fronts as 245 40/19. The rear wheel is 10". Is this set up ok?

 

Please post pics!

 

Chad, are you running a spacer with those hiros?

 

 

I assume you are refering to the blk 350z in the OP. That was an auction off eBay and I do not know the seller. I did paste a link to the auction and you might be able to contact the seller that way.

I am purchasing the 19" Volk GTS soon and wanted some last info on offsets and tire sizes.

 

um no... I was referring to Chad68's redline with axis hiros
