Agree 100%

When it freshly cleaned and polished it looks sweet!!!!

But 1-2hrs later you see dust all over and it's dirty again

It's the guys like me that don't have anywhere to post (either stretched or fat tires thread). I on the edge of not belonging in this thread. Hope this helps someone who is looking to compare similar offsets/tire sizes.

19x9.5+17 (245/35)
19x10.5+18 (275/35)

Z looks good! But I agree that you and the other recent posts about 275s on 10.5s do not "qualify" for the fat tire part of this thread. I think a 275 is pretty standard, and even a bit undersized for a 10.5" wheel. Same for a 245 on any wheel on the front, let alone a 9.5. You could have gone bigger - why did you choose not to?

Thanks man I appreciate it. I got a pretty good deal on the 275's and 245's. I waited long enough for the wheels and just wanted to get them on the car for the summer. I knew they didn't qualify as bigger tires, I could see how they are a bit undersized too. Hopefully these pics can help others see what they have room for. I guess I thought a 295 or 305 would be a bit of overkill for the amount of engine mods I have done this far. But thats the great thing about tires is you can change them, I'm just glad I have the wheels now.

10.5- 315 305 minimum

10" wheel 305s .... 295 minimum

Of cours it depends on the tire bc 295 kdw2's are as/looks as wide as my 305 452's

VQ- you belong in this thread bro, the standards on this thread are no where as high as the stretch thread

My intent is not to talk smack or **** anyone off , it's the truth
If you get bothered by my comment sit on your thumb

Agreed! Black with black [my Z (265/295-18) and my wife's Z (255/285-19)].

They were on there temporarily while I got tires for the Volks that are on there now. Right now they (the NISMOS) are sitting in the garage awaiting new, bigger tires, then they will go on my 300. I do love the black SSRs on the 300, but it was time for a unique change.

Finally got them mounted. 18x9.5 F, 108x10.5 R wrapped in 265/35/18 and 275/35 18 BFG G-Force T/A KDW2's. Sorry for the crappy Android pic. Now I need a drop to get rid of the gap.
