ad08r on 220m. what is the widest i can do?

Golddots · 03-10-2014, 12:47 PM

I'm all stock and I will pull my alignment pins.

I I'm thinking 265/30-19 and 275/30-19.

Is this too little sidewall?

I think its just over .5" smaller in diameter.

Thanks.

I wouldn't go that route ^

Either OEM sizes or 255/35/19 front and 275/35/19 rear are the options that I would consider. I would not go any wider considering the wheels are only 8.5" and 9.5" wide. I also wouldn't want the short sidewalls that you proposed above.

Well I'm pulled the trigger and ordered the sizes above. The car is my daily and it will see some autox in the new "F street". I may do some hpde later this year as well.
I have high expectations after trying Michelin PSS and now my as3 pilots will be dismounted for the ad08r

I just bought a set, not in your sizes but they run big. I have rubbing now when I didn't with a larger tire, i.e. previously 285, now a 275 AD-08R
