Need some expert tire help from you guys - Bagged Brixtons
I just got my set of Brixton forged wheels
The off sets are similar to this guys JT2MA71
Velos S3, 19x10 48 and 19x12 39. Except I have 11.5 in the rear.
I want similar beefy taller tire like he has
but I am also on bags and not sure how big I can go if bagged out too. I hope with your guys help I can come up with a consensus brand and size.
Disclaimer on the pics these are completely just test fit tires that are wrong. I hope also that because the tires look so bad I'm not freaking out it won't look as good as it should.
Better pic here lots of views y'all can't even comment ...lol
you're asking a question that not many peeps know the answer to. It's not that no one wants to help you.
Not many bagged car guys on here. You would be better off PM'ing the guys you know that have bagged cars and see if they're willing to help.
When i was trying to fit the biggest tire (295) on my front track wheels, I worked with my tire guy and they mounted test fit tires on my car to check the clearance. I didn't have to buy those tires 1st. They had in stock and just mounted up but just didn't drive on them. Of course 295 didn't fit so I had to go with 275. There was no way for us to measure the fit. The tire fit top to bottom but didn't clear on full lock.
Theres no way to guess how big a tire you can get since when you bag out, it's hard to measure the available room under there.
If I had to do that, I would mount the tire you want, bag out while it's still on the lift, then slowly lower it to see if it will clear without crushing your fender liners.
There's no way to measure/anticipate this kind of set up since the rear camber changes too when you lower.
Trial & error unless you find someone who's already done that with similar offset rims with same size tire..,
Good luck.
Yea I was hoping some guys with bags would respond. Good idea with bagging out on a lift then raising tho. I will definetly try that. What size rim tire are you running Mingo.
Great feedback...similar approach with the additional use of wheel offset calculator on my adventure to Club 305

Rennen wheels
265/30/20 front 9.5" +37
295/30/20 rear 10.5" +42
I have some 315 35 and 265 35 Nittos coming we shall see.
Are you purposely getting taller tires??
315/35 gonna be way taller than oem rears. 315/30 should be a better fit.
Curious now if the 315/35 will clear. Let us know.
