[QUOTE="Rygy04, post: 12161045, member: 132111"] Let's start with the rear. I have decided to run the NT05R's. I am leaving my rim stock. So my original plan was just to slap on the same size tire as they come with. 285/40/18's. This will work nicely since Nitto makes the NT05R's in that size... but wait... I heard I might be able to fit the NT05R's 305/45/18's on my stock rim? Is this true? Does this create to much bulge? Won't it make the speedo off? (It will be getting tuned soon anyway) Now for the fronts. NT05 come in a 275/40/18 which I would love to run but am not sure about the sidewall height. I am NOT lowering the front of the car so the 255/45/18 looks right as it sits. I understand the sidewall height is a percentage of the width so the 40 might be perfect. Will a 275 be too wide for the front of this car? Or shall I stick with my original plan and go with a set of BFG KDW II 255/45/18's? Feedback/Advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
