Clearance with 265/35/19 in ZCP front

gan1hck · 08-11-2014, 05:18 PM

I've got 19x10 wheels on all four corners...offset 25 mm.

Right now I have AD08R 265/30/19 on all four corners without any rubbing issues in a ZCP suspension with Vorschlag camber plates....-2.5 or so.

I wish I had bought 18 inch wheels...then I would have no problems choosing stickier tires.

My question is...can I squeeze 265/35/19's in the front without rubbing.

Don't want to buy a set and then find out that I can't run them.

Thanks.

I run that size on an ET+27 on eibach springs without any issues. With that camber you should be totally fine.

For most it rubs bad, I know Malek was able to get it to work on his. The issue isn't width but tire height. You start going beyond 26.1" in diameter with an ET25 wheel and you will rub the inside liner. Not sure with the camber though.

that's what I'm concerned about...going from 30 series to 35 series adds a quite a bit of height...

How do the folks who get it to work...get it to work.

This would be something that I'm planning on driving on the track.

Why not run 275/30/19 on all 4?

Who makes tires in that size with wear rating's of 100 or less.

I'm running 265/35/19 on all four corners, and there is definitely some rubbing up front. Nothing serious, but enough to hear it on full lock turns.

19x10" +25 here as well. Also running spacers in the front and rear. I don't think camber is going to help much, as the outside diameter of the tire is your restricting factor.

None that I'm aware of. You never stated that is what you were looking for.

I would go to 18's if that's a requirement.

265/35R19 will usually rub. Some have made it work, but if you do not want any rubbing I would probably advise against it.

Wasn't Michelin supposed to release the PSS in that size? I could have sworn I saw it on Tirerack like a week ago and they just released it.

Don't read too much into threadwear. Some 300s wear like 200, vice versa.

Then there are threadwear below 100s but doesn't like heat cycle and after 3 mths they grip worst than what it is.

I don't know of any in that size with 100 treadwear... (track tire). PSS has 300 treadwear (street tire).
