Supra N_A Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 what tyres would you recommend for 285s ?? what are they I might copy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) There are several very good tyres you could fit, what do you have on the front ? Also what is your budget ? I've just checked and there isnt much choice in 285 x 30 x 19 youd have to go up a size in the profile to 35 to get better choice. You'd be much better off with 275's much more choice The tyres on my car are Continental contact 2's and are a very good tyre, 275 30 19's are £240 each Edited April 27, 2012 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) How does that help Josh ? your on 18" rims so if you put 285 35 on 19's the differance from stock is 46 mm !! The differance to your 18's is 21 mm !! Edited April 27, 2012 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showing what a 285 looks like on a 10" rearand the difference in how the tyre looks. You're too quick to jump at all my comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matched set of tyres is the way to go in my opinion and as i said if you go to 275 30 you have much more choice and you'll be closer to the stock overall size.

Supra N_A Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 for all the money dont think its really worth going for the 275s make little difference may as well go for the 285s? like these http://www.camskill.co.uk/m55b0s4794p61312/CONTINENTAL_TYRES_CAR_CONTINENTAL_SPORT_CONTACT_5P_CONTISPORTCONTACT_5P_-_285_30R19_98%2BY_XL_%28MO%29_FR_TL_%28Mercedes%29%0A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as a lot of people on here. How is what i said jumping down your throat ? I wonder why you think posting your 18" tyre and wheel sizes with totally differant makes of tyre helps the op have an idea what another make of tyre will look like when if you actually take a bit of time to check you'll see that the sidewall height is differant by quite a lot. Let alone how much the sidewall profiles vary from one make to another, one giving a stretched appearance and another looking like the tyres actually too wide. Im not having a go but sometimes what you might think is helping isn't helping at all and more than likely actually confusing the issue. I seriously wasn't trying to jump down your throat but i am trying to help the op to understand fitting the correct size is more important than what it looks like. I am a nice guy and im sorry if my reply upset you so much, it wasn't intended to Edited April 28, 2012 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 do you think its actually necessary? Im guessing by the name the car is an n/a, do you actually need 285 tyres on an n/a? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
