Just wondering if anyone runs this tire size front and/or rear? If so, can you list what the width/offset of your wheel, and also the brand/model of the tire? Thank!

 

i ran Toyo R888s in a 255/35/18 on a +15 18x9.5 RE30 with 295/30/18 on a +18 18x10.5 RE30 for the Import Tuner shoot i did. The 255/35 R888 came in with a tread width: 10.1" & overall diameter: 25.1". The 295/30 tread width was: 11.8" and o.d. 25.1".. However i would not recommend either size due to the o.d. size and resulting gearing changes.

 

So basically that tire size is never run on front or rear Z/G wheels then?

 

Well, you can but they're shorter. If you're thinking going square with this tire size, it is really more ideal for the track. I have a set of race slicks with 255/35 in front and 285/35 in rear -- both are ~25" tall.

 

I plan on running 265/35/18's Direzza Star Specs all around on (4) 18x8.5 +33 track wheels this upcoming year.

Both DD and weekend track use.

 

I downsized to a 255/40/17, 275/35/18 combo

just make sure your F > R rolling diameter is still close. and know that you will have alot more fender gap.

 

I've seen it done and it looks pretty lame. The outer tire doesn't match the wheel well arch anymore. For the track , who cares, just do it.

 

True. I was asking for street, so thanks everyone for quickly coming to a consensus.
