View Full Version : Love the handling of my Track wheels/tires, wider up front on stock wheels?

First off, thanks to TireRack for handling my recent order of Kosei K1s and PS2s so well. I had changed my mind at the last minute on tire size and they were able to make the change without impacting delivery time. Ordered early Sunday morning, arrived Wednesday afternoon. Excellent service!

So, I'm running 245/40-17 on the K1s on all four corners on my ZHP equipped car. I am in love with the neutral handling of this setup compared to stock staggered. I'm not sure if it's because of the extra rubber up front, or the non-staggered configuration, but the car is very neutral and feels great. Seems the little bit of understeer that remained after my anti-sway bar upgrade is totally gone.

Since I have 245's up front with no rubbing, can I run 245's up front on my stock Style 135s? Maybe run 4 rear wheels on all four corners with 245's?

245's? Try 255's all around. :D

I just purchased a set of SSR Comp-H (thanks, Gary :thumbup: ). 18X8.5 with ET42 offset. They are mounted on 255/35 PS2. My car is lowered by about 1.25 inch with the PSS9 and my fenders aren't rolled.

It doesn't rub anywhere. :)

Actually, I still have some space between the fenders and the tires, I am going to throw on some H&R 3MM or 5MM spacers to push them out.

Now, back to the 135. The rear wheel (18X8.5) has an offset of ET50 so with a set of 10MM spacers, you should be able to run them at the front with 255/35.
