jevansio Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 I ran 295/30/19 as that was the only size availbale for the R888 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clapyohandz Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Wider than 285 on stock fender you get rubbing. With flared arches you can go really wide. I personnally think that the r888 305 30 19 is lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 I wanted to ask the same question, they are 9.5 front and 10.5 rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyh Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 sorry guys ive been working today so havn't managed to reply:( im pritty sure my rear wheels are 9.5j i might be wrong though;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 275 is about right for a 9.5 wheel, you could up the profile to a 35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyh Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 i currently have 35 profile fitted just wondering if i could go wider maybe a 285/35/19 would be the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyh Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 I wanted to ask the same question, they are 9.5 front and 10.5 rear how do you know they are 10.5j have you come across these wheels before:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 im after some different rear tyres for my sup i currently have 2753019 but these are to low profile what is the best size tyre to fit. i was thinking either 2853519 or 2953019 285/30/19 or 295/30/19 would be closer to stock rolling radius.

mikeyh Posted September 25, 2010 Author Share Posted September 25, 2010 i think i need to check what width/ofset wheels i have just to be on the safe side. my arches have been rolled do you think 295/30 will clear with no rubbing etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
