Hi,

Need advice from wheel experts.

Thanks

Nice congrats! What tires did you end up going with?
By the way, are you on coilovers?

You can still go more aggressive as a 11 can take a +30 easy with a 305..Some peoples flush is not a true flush ..

your speedo is off with that tire setup and you lucky your not getting esp codes..30 front and 30 rear is made on a 20 inch tire unless you use a 305 then a 25 would be like a 305 25.

You might get on wot or turns..285 you can go with a 30 ..

Why drop down to a 285?? is that a 11 inch rim if so it will over stretch and look like doodoo,

I think 255/30/20 fronts and 305/25/20 rears would be idea on my next set of tires.

The car looks great! Congrats! What offsets did you end up settling on? Do you get any rubbing at all up front when turning lock to lock or over bumps? Any rubbing at all in the rear?

20x9 et28 and 20x11 et37 with 3mm spacers all around.
It will slightly rub when turned over bumps and driveways. I just remind myself to raise it when going over bumps or driveways.
