I took the Carbon wheels to Discount tire to replace the sport cup 2's where they put their best man on the job... I only looked at the rims when I picked them up and did not immediately notice they mounted the 315's on the front and 305's on the rears.
Getting ready to run COTA this Sunday, I finished replacing the brake pads with Pagid's and bleeding and as I installed the fronts I was thinking they looked meaty, then as I started on the rear I instantly noticed the 305's stretched across the rims before even lifting them in place.
At this point I first was disappointed that they were going to have to service the rims to swap, but then I looked closer at the fronts and I liked the way the 315's looked. I ran the wheels through the range of motion and they don't look like they will rub anywhere, and I've been running 325's on some after market rims on the back already so that should be okay so I went to Discount and ordered 325's for the back...
It all looks tight no doubt, meaty and sticky too. Anybody have any bad experiences +sizing the tires that I should be aware of?
