Let me guess, you're considering the TR Motorsport MT1. It's been done before and the report is that is all clears with 275/35 tires (not sure which brand, but it was reported to be real close to the shock up front).

Main Pro: You'll be able to rotate tires and get max usage from them.

Main Con: Expect increased oversteer given all esle is stock and with stock alignment. The front track will be wider than the rear track by 1/2" as well.

enkei makes a wheel choice in that option too..

i am running that setup all the way around.. with 265-35 front and 295-30 rear...

5mm spacers for the perfect offsets...

this is my track setup..

i dont feel this car needs a square setup....

i want as much power down grip as possible... so 295 or atleast a 285 for the rear....

square = to much oversteer....

I have 2 brand new for sale. One has scratches on the inside where my stoptech BBK didn't clear all the way.

500 shipped for 2 wheels.

rzm3 · 09-19-2009, 12:24 PM

what do you guys think about
265/40/18 front
275/40/18 rear

Trying to buy the RE-11s...

bigjae1976 · 09-19-2009, 06:17 PM

I thought some people rub on 265/40's in the front?

not with the right wheel/tire size and offset

08M3 · 09-21-2009, 02:29 PM

275/35/18 - I run 18x10 et 25 I very lightly rub on the front go for Kingleh's setup it's a good deal and a really nice wheel.

M3V8Driver · 09-21-2009, 07:40 PM

I know Enkei makes quality wheels that are light and strong, but I could never catch on to this particular model. I just don't get the "spider web" design, that is, the extra set of circumferential ribs. Just looks unnecessary and hard to clean.

I ended up getting 255/35/19 and 285/35/19 RE-11s. Ben told me that they are stickier than PS2s. Will wait and see. I went 19s because there are more size choices available. 18s have a very limited selection for the M3.
