Please post side pics if you have this wheel combo. Currently thinking of going a little wider but I'd love to see some good shots first. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have anything? I would like to know more information on this combo too. I thought about going 255/35/19 in the front and 275/35/19 in the back, or would it be a better combo to go with the 285/35/19? What offset and width would I need? Is this combo close to the factory ratio? Becuase I dont want to mess anything up.

Here's a 285/35/19

Pretty sweet looking. I'm thinking about doing the same thing. Happento have any pics that show the entire side of your car? Thanks in advance.

If you go with a 285/35/19 in rear and 255/35/19 in front you will have about a .82" height difference in front and rear.

The overall height of the rear tire and wheel will be 26.84"

The overall height of the front will be 26.02"

If you did a 255/40/19 in front, you would have a height of 27.02" which might match a little closer with the 285/35 rears.

Thanks. I'm running 245/35/19's up front.

hey that looks sweet erock...

does anyone know if a 285 will work, without rubbing, on a +20 offset in the back?

btw, trent... the Z needs a staggered tire height between 0.25 and 0.75 inches from front to back in order for VDC to function within factory spec... it's fine to run the same section width front and back but it's still a good idea to maintain the staggered height

Trent@MVP

Oh yeah I knew it needed to have some, but I couldnt' remember the exact amount. So then I guess it appears that the 285/35 and 255/35 combo would be a perfect size difference.

Im running 245/35/19f +26 and 285/35/19r +22. Im lowered about 1.5-2 inches in the back and it does not rub at all. I might be looking to move up to 255/35/19 on my next set of front tires. I would say go for it!

DJK - what kind of suspension are you running? Are you using any camber kits, I'm assuming you are w/ that much of a drop. Looks good.

trent: spot-on... i heard the same thing from a local tire vendor about the Z too

djk: nice!... how wide is your rear rim? 9.5,10,10.5?

Would there be any advantage to have 285/35/19 in the back instead of 275/35/19? I know that it would be wider, but would there be a difference that I could feel? Also, I really like the Toyo T1-S, do they make any size bigger than a 275/35/19?

erock

they don't make the T-1's in a 285... I don't know if there is much of a difference in road feel w/ a 275 vs. 285.

I wanted to us 19x8.5 +21 front and 19x9.5 +23 rear. Is this possible while using the tire sizes listed above? Also I want a 1.5 inch drop with Tein Flex.

erock

Check my sig.

Would you rub if you had a 1.5 inch drop?
