currently have 215 35 18 and it is .15 inches smaller..but i want thicker..
215 40 18 will be okay??
it is like .7 inches bigger that stock..

Ya it should be ok how low is the car thats the only prob. See I went with 215 40 R17 so that when I lower this thing next year I can go low with out rubbing. Though you should be good just a lil bit rubbering.

my car is running on eibach pro or sport, not sure..it is rebadged version from saleen..
sitting higher than the one you see on my sig..

[konafocuswrc]

this is what it looks right now..





and i will be visiting megawheelz to get quote on tires and installation..
i kinda want pirelli..

get some rear disc's before you worry about tires lol.

i have the same suspension and am running 215 45 zr17 and the gap is minimal.
by the look in your pic(assuming that is once the suspension has settled) you can go to a 40 side wall

ps. i have the pzero neros, amazing tires!

i should've put those glue on brembo. not!!

i don't know..mine is not FI'ed..i don't think it is worth for now..
i would save more money for manual trans swap or lentech..


well anyway,,.how would i not worry if i don't have tires on wheels?? :P
can you run without tires??

[konafocuswrc]

decided to go with 225 35 18..
little bit thicker and close to stock tire size..

but thing is nobody here sell 225 35 18 size within my budget..
most of them, are $300 per tire range..

1 place sell nankang or wanli around $500 range..but i had them before and disliked it..

megawheels carry sumimoto htr+ around $600 range..
they have to order it..i don't know where they go to pick up..but they say they can get it within a day..so i am gonna give it a try..

[konafocuswrc]

oh well, foudnd cheaper place..
$600, taxes, mounting, balancing, all included

Your building your car for show, not performance.

[konafocuswrc]

i am going to build it with FI later..

i didn't just buy new wheels and tires to change looks only..
safety issue was main reason..

if i didn;t have to buy wheels and tires, i would spent this $$ for swapping to manual transmission..

anyway..
