I got my tires mounted on the rear wheels. 255/40/18 BFG G-force comp2's
They are showing a lot more lip then i'm comfortable with. I have a set of 255/40/18 Pirelli P-Zero Rosso's mounted on my XXR's for the SC400 and they don't show as much lip. And both rims are 18x10.
I might have to buy a new set of 265/35's for this car. I will post more pics when I mount them on the car late tonight.
They are great tires.....no complaints.....i've always been a BFGoodrich tire guy....
Grip is pretty good....enough to destroy my w58 lol
hahaha, that's what im afraid of now. I'm installing my tt auto LSD that's been sitting in my basement soon, and really want to crank up the boost. I'm at 9psi now, and im on the stock HG too. I just want more boost, but a new trans is not in the budget lol
So I mounted the wheels on today, and they look great. I think I can stil fit a wider tire in the rear. I'll take better pics in the daytime and update tomorrow.
Looks good. I wouldn't go wider unless you got some stiff springs. By the looks of your pics, if you go wider, you're probably going to rub on bumps and dips. My 2 cents.
The wheels and fitment look really good on your car.
Thank you very much!

You should be able to get a 275 in the back
A 275 might be too wide, but a 265/35 should still fit without rubbing. Although i'd much rather have the wider tire in back.

I feel like a 265/35 should fit comfortably. The sidewall on the 255/40 is tall, so it makes it look tighter then it should be

Thanks, I feel like this fitment is spot on right now. However, I'm using the 7mm spacer in front, since my 8mm hasnt come in yet. Front will poke 1mm more so that i have more caliper clearence, so hopefully it wont rub in front. And yes, they will poke exactly even front and back
Make sure to get some wheels locks this time....Dont want them wheels to be stolen...
hahahaaha, don't jinx me. Yes, I bought some aftermarket locking lug nuts, but i might buy some better quality ones. I don't think state farm will want to pay out for a second set of stolen wheels lol
