Saw a picture not too long ago and someone was running 40 series tires and was lowered on them.

does anyone have a link or pictures. Possibly getting coils this weekend and when its time for new tires i might possibly bump up the sidewall height.

I don't have any pics but I am on 245/35/20 and 275/30/20, I wanna see 19's with 40's though

Lol same here. But my rears are 35, im going for more a beefy street look rather then slammed.

Here I was running 245/40f and 275/40r on 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 et 12. Looked ok but was rubbing the top of the fender well. I rolled and pulled the fenders but it still rubbed. Now I'm running 265/35f and 305/30r

Wow, love that first pic. If i run a 235/40/20 in the front i wonder if i will run into problems. My tire right now sits right behind my fender and my wheel sticks out about half an inch from the fender.

If you want beefy tires, just get smaller wheels... there's a limit to how large you can make the overall diameter of your wheel and tire package before the performance penalty is too large, not to mention it'll look goofy.

Im just going up 1 series tho..

This guy said hes on a 275/40

I cannot tell if it is a 20 inch wheel or a 19

oops I am on a 275/35 haha that was a typo. your offset is going to play a huge part in this as well

Well i have a small amount of poke in the front. With my tire right now, it looks like small amount of camber would get the tire in the fender. And my rears already tuck even when i had a 285/35/20. If i roll the rears i think i could possibly run a 295

In my opinion, if you want more rubber your gonna have to down size to 18" or 19's. A 40 series tire on a 20" wheel would look ridiculous on our cars plus the over all diameter would be way over specs.

Definitely agree with you there bro

gsean400

Yeah it would be pretty overspec. ill just lower the car and see how i like it, then I'll decide from there if i want to downsize or not

I agree 2. Because I have 265/35/20 on rear and is very, very close to the panel. So, 40 tires on wheels 20'. No bueno.

gsean400

yeah you guys are right, that panel you are talking about i already hit with my tire somehow! Screw that ill stay with my 35 until i get some 19s in the future.

guys it all depends on the offset and width of the wheel not tire hieght
