Front tire sizes with Manual Racks??

Ntv69 · February 7th, 2009, 05:15 PM

I am really thinking of adding a manual rack. Ive always thought my steering sucked at higher speeds. I was wondering how WIDE of front tires people are running with there manual racks? 225?245? Also Quick 15:1 or Standard 20:1?

get standard ratio rack if you plan on going in a stright line it will be easier to stay stright if that makes sence.

get a set of skinnys it will be easier to turn on the street with them.(unless you drive in heavy weather)

You would have some mondo forearms. I have no p/s on my 240sx and it sucks with a 205 tire let alone a 245

I've ran my ponys with 245's up front before with my flaming river manual kit... it wasn't bad as long as you were moving but if I had to parallel park forget about it
