Ordering some advan ad08's...Help needed with front tire selection

1cleanm6 · 09-12-2010, 05:11 PM

Hello folks,

Im about to place an order for Advan ad08's in the following sizes

295/30/19 in the rear (order already placed)

Now for the front what size do i order?
245/35/19
255/35/19
255/30/19 (any diff from 35 or 30)

Im looking for max grip

I DONT want the front to be streched as the front wheel is 13et and 9 inches wide, its pretty agressive.

Front wheels are 13et
rears are 22et

PLease help as im anxious to order

thanks fellow m3'ers

Also I chose this over ps2($$$) and the re-11's, and reading reviews it says it has the BEST grip however a little noisy(i can live with the noise).

What are your wheels? Size, width, etc?

P.S. on the RE-11's, a lot of guys LOVE these at the track... I have not experienced these myself but have spoken to a few who have and they have nothing but GREAT things to say... and they are quiet and ride well for DD.

Im sure they are great tires, however from all the reviews i read the yokos grip better.

If your front wheels are 19x9 ET13 you should use 245/35-19.

STALKER · 09-12-2010, 11:05 PM

I think you might rub with the 255/35 with your aggressive offset, plus the AD08s run square.

1cleanm6 · 09-13-2010, 01:47 AM

awesome thanks, will go ahead and order 245/35/19's

MrHarris · 09-13-2010, 02:26 AM

I have this setup, and just know that your steering will feel slightly more numb than stock with slight understeer. The grip and turn in response is just amazing from these tires over the PS2's, even with such a big stagger like 245/295.

elh0102 · 09-13-2010, 06:49 AM

AD08 is a great tire, but the stagger you are considering is going to increase the understeer in a car that already has too much.

1cleanm6 · 09-13-2010, 11:51 AM

ah now im considering ordering 255/35 or 265 35 for the front, the tirerack guy told me 245 and 295 is a little too much of a spread

You will not be able to use a 265/35/19 with the AD08 out front, you will rub.

1cleanm6 · 09-13-2010, 02:19 PM

245 35 19

295 30 19 it is!

Ryan@IND · 09-13-2010, 04:49 PM

totally right. the 245/35-19 AD08 is by no means "stretched" on the front.
Although, i am not a big fan of the 275/30-19 rears, you don't have much of any other option if you want to run the AD08 on those particular wheels that you have, especially with the lowering that you have on the car.

alpineMtrizzle · 09-13-2010, 04:54 PM

I love the advan ad08's they look absolutely sick but a little pricey

anyways, my buddy has them on his Mtrizzle and he is running a 285 in the rear and a 245 in front
