what up everbody i have a 05 base 350z and i just got some xxr 522 19 x 8.5 in the front and 19 x 10 in the rear idk the offset but ill knows tomorrow!!! beside the point, im looking for some tire size for drifting and daily driving. are the tires i rims i picked out good for drifting on my car or not? which tire sixze should i go with? my car is lowered a bit in the front but i know 19 will still fit and a bit lowered in the back. i dont want too thick but not tooo thin either. hope you guys can help. i got used to drifting with the stock 17's but now that i got a new flywheel and clutch from jwt and i basically got these rims for free i wanted my car to actually drift with style. is it ok to drift with these 19 nd these things weigh about the same thing like the stock 17 rims maybe lighter!!!!

 

Get ready holmes...

 

hahah get ready for wht

 

275/40/19 rear and 245/40/19 front. offset is i believe +25 for front and rear

 

20" chrome wheels are te best

 

Buy new wheels

 

Also gonna need a new diff. If you have a base model. Drift angle must suck with the open diff

 

Is there another way to drift? You have to be stylen.

 

Seriously, give the front 8.5 inch wheels to some kid with a civic. Buy another set of 10's and run a 245/35-19 front and rear. This is your best bet for drifting.

 

OMG I have no idea what OP is asking

We have a dedicated Drifiting subforum, maybe do some searching there until you can assemble a logical sentence?

you would want a tire that has good heat stability and since driftin' aint cheap and you're probably not anywhere near Formula D skill level, a harder compound is better since it lasts longer.

assuming your car is NA, i wouldn't go with a 19" rear wheel at all. too much mass trying to break loose, the OE 17s or an 18" would be better, and no wider than a 265.. you really dont need it.

+1 on getting the LSD. Since you're base, the nismo lsd comes with the stub axels that you will need, or get the quaife unit. both are built on a base open diff pumpkin..
