Tire options for 18’s or bite bullet and do 19’s?

They make a 265 and a 275 but the 285 is a 30 aspect ratio. Sucks because a 265, 285 staggered setup isn't bad.

For sure. I’d ideally run that 285 but like you said it’s tiny at like 25” tall total. I think it’s half an inch lower than the factory tire iirc.

This guy has had some successes and learning curve but he shoe horned 315’s upfront to various degrees of success. I’d wanna see if I could figure something out with the wire harness, and what’s honestly left there because I’ve switched to a Holley efi. I have a great shop installing the Holley so I’m outta the loop on what is/isn’t getting deleted. I’d guess that loom is a door lock/window loom so it probably is not going anywhere on my car.


I’m hopeful the 305/30/19 f1 r3 runs narrow like a nitto but I doubt it.

I’m going to see if I measure a buddies 1LE front tire width what it is in person on a vehicle at 30psi aired up.

It’s a weird feeling to say my car is so old I can’t find the tires I want for it haha

So the next step is admitting the shit you were (probably still are) full of.

Then tell SVTP why you went into hiding like you were next on the Kkklintoon hit list.


EVs are for people that prefer flesh lights over vagene.

I drank plenty of koolaid, still don’t buy the election was straight, and I love the country and don’t love seeing the mess it’s in.

Bag of cheese is $18, wtf. Jar of mayo is $9. Wtf. Bridges just are open range by shipping vessels now. Wtf. Cops and civilians get killed daily, we give illegals housing and pre pay credit cards… we arrest grandmas for social media posts and standing outside abortion centers, homeless people get no bail walk away situations for killing people in cold blood…country’s a mess man, there’s no joy in this situation.

Didn’t go into hiding, phone I had my log ins with got crushed at work in a conveyor against chain and rollers. Got a new one, didn’t have the passwords from the old one, did a new email, moved on. Had other priorities and forgot about this site.

Saw they’re putting the 03 cobra in Forza, searched, a link led me here, and I said I’m going to figure out how to log back in. I rebuilt the crushed phone as best I could about a year ago to try and get access to crypto wallets. Spent about $900 rebuilding it and it’s still janky but got into some of those wallets, got access to my old email, and reset my password for this site.

When I logged in I saw messages from @SID297 and @Klaus and quickly took care of it. Because I’d forgotten I said lemme double pay this to clear my name as much as possible.

Cheers.

So the 250 or so average vessel strikes per year don’t count because your tin foil was not in tune until bridge strikes by ship became the next tin foil talking point.

Lol

Those 250 average strikes don’t sink the 2nd most traveled volatile chemicals bridge every year though. You don’t buy it either. Don’t kid yourself.

Regardless whether blatant incompetence or nefarious activity or aliens or humans, life is gonna get spicier before we all die our own deaths. If you believe in a narrative that helps you sleep at night, cool.

I sleep easy. I don’t think there’s enough competence to string all these random events together. Half the digital world is run by 20 something’s asleep at the keyboard who can’t be bothered to get off their phone to answer an emergency dispatch let alone run international bridge sinking campaigns or world wars. If some bankers somewhere have a hand in it, they’re probably preoccupied paying off their children’s legal fees for drug abuse or bribing a college to take their student. Most bad things happen because people are bad at their jobs.

I don't remember what the original bet was, nor do I remember how long ago it was made (2020? 2021?)

I dunno how I feel about ducking for y-e-a-r-s, but you're claiming you've paid in full + more than prime interest

As if I had any sway over the double OGs or OG SVTPers, but I won't give an "off with his head" nor a "save his ass" vote.

Back to the actual thread,


I’m kinda shocked this actually worked for this guy on a stock geometry suspension. My assertion would be with that backspacing though it would only clear a bigger brake kits with a bowled spoke.

Was at the end of Trumps first term late January.

That would be 3 years if I’m doing the math right.

The $500 crossed my mind a few times in spring of 2021 but by summer I’d forgotten about it.

I logged back in a few days ago after changing the password on my account with an old phone I’ve rebuilt since then. I have access to the email I used for my svtperformance account on that phone. I can’t remember the password for that email so I’ve kept that phone after rebuilding if. Its the only way I can access that email, and I have a few things linked to that, example I have a handful of crypto wallets linked to that email, this site, a discount tire account, etc. Anyways.

I got the desire to jump back on this site a few days ago when a thread for Forza horizon getting an 03 cobra came up in a search linking to svtperformance. A member here started a thread.

When I got on the sight and saw in private messages that I’d forgotten about that bet I doubled down and took care of it right away. I also informed klaus at that time as well.

Why he came in here acting like I haven’t squared that up is anyone’s guess, it looks like it was to stir up drama.



Anyways,

Back to tires, on a 1LE, my buddy said he measured just under 12/3/8” upfront and just over 12/7/8” out back.


That’s a lot of tire. I remember nitto “315’s” being a cute like 11.7” or something… that said the factory 03 cobra 275 fronts were stoutly wide and I don’t presently have a front sway bar or fender liners so I might actually get them to fit my setup if I can rerout the wire loom.

I've watched that video several times. Unfortunately I don't think those wheels will clear a 10 inch coilover spring.

The poke is also pretty bad.

Its ugly for sure, and I’m not about to buy that wheel but props to the guys enginuity/practicality… I’d rather just buy a lesser tire vs have that exact look on my car personally but I get what and why he’s doing what he’s doing.

I’m going to trek up to the shop doing work on my car this week and take some measurements.

I’d do these tires and a 19” wheel in the winter anyways so I have time. I want to ship the car to kennybrown and have them put their cage, strut braces and an sla front/custom irs rear and their pro4R kit.

This winter has been install the Holley and sort out a lot of quirks, I’m hoping summer is fun driving and then send it to kennybrown like November and see what they can do.

My buddy has a wide body 03 cobra and he’s only ever ran 295’s upfront. When I told him I’m trying to get a 305 upfront he said he’s gonna try to do the same or maybe a 315.

Here’s how his wide body is coming. Some pics are a year old some are 3 months old.

You are a bitch of the highest order.

I mean straight up, not quite a man, not quite a woman. Straight bitch. Go back to where you came from.

There is a “catastrophic” average occurrence a little more than once every other year. That means a total bridge collapse. Like I told one of your tin foil brethren, you paying attention because you crave and need shit like this in your life does not validate your mental illness.

Did you know that there are more people killed by auto accidents in a single city in a single month these days then there were in the entire US in 1900? Omg! The auto manufacturers are in cahoots with the kkkabal to control population! You may want to sell your cars and buy a Zorb Ball to travel everywhere.

It’s easy to sell everything as a conspiracy theory. The reality is more boring and plebeian, people just genuinely lose track of stuff or forget to do their job, or screw up most of the time. Some times it is guided though. But it’s not some grand ruling party illuminati, it’s just some people are better primed to take advantage of a crises or cause one and some get away with it some don’t. Many players all vying for money and power.

Cheers. I think the lawlessness in big cities is due to nefarious intentions though. That’s not really arguable, they want big cities to hurt and strain, it pressures our reserve currency status. If bankers wanna hurt the country to prop up the next reserve currency and they’ve already heavily invested with Chhina, it’s kind of obvious they will disrupt what’s left here. We’re being attacked from international bankers getting corrupt district Attourneys et Al through imo. Our infrastructure is likely to deteriorate now that the bankers have picked the next golden boy being china at this time imo.

I’m 34, I’m sure by the time I’m 40 I’ll have an evolved view beyond what I have today.

This situation isn’t something one person or one political party can ever fix. The American “house” is already divided and losing most of its courage and morality day by day. This probably only gets uglier unfortunately. Best to focus on your own house and staying healthy and lose the notion a mayor, governor or white house will lift your household. Learn skills/trades, self sustain, get healthy, 10x Grant Cardone it. No time to waste crying for help or how it’s unfair.

Not true, categorically false.

I probably have more back hair than you have facial hair. If that’s not manly, repaying a debt double upon realizing it was forgotten is pretty stout I’d say.

I had forgotten about it. Joys of being busy and losing easy access to the site each day.

Went and measured my setup. Because I don’t presently have a front sway bar I might be able to fit a skinny 305. They had a 305 Michelin pilot sport there and that sucker was wider than my 315 Toyo tq’s I have out back.

I might have to do wheels/tires this summer though, my current ones are 5 years old and have dry cracks through out. I waited to long between drives.

Current front 275’s are 10/3/4” wide. My buddy measured his 305/30/19’s at just under 12/3/8” wide.

About 1.6” difference. It’d be tight, I think it’ll need an ugly poke and a bit of camber like -1.8° with a rolled fender to work. On the inside I have a cavity though. No sway bar makes it a breeze and they’re going to wrap the wire loom in new black coating and run it inside the engine bay cleanly enough.

They like the idea of at least trying to get a 305 upfront. A couple guys have gt350’s and said we could try mounting the fronts from one to see what happens.

Honestly I’d be happy to do another $1000 next month if everyone agrees to chill out. I just forgot about this. You guys would be doing @SID297 a solid as he’d have another grand for the site or whatever he’d like to do with it.

If I do that though and you guys keep at this, then the gentlemanly thing to do is contribute $500 to the site as well each time you hijack a thread with all this. This would be even more helpful for the site as you’d have given Travis like $5k already just from this thread. You guys wanna help Travis right? It’s a win win, and I can put my foot forward as a show of good faith.
