tire help

whitemustang02 · January 31st, 2008, 08:58 PM

id say u could go a little wider in the back, because u have 10.5 rims u could go up to 315 however i dont know for shure at what points u have streched tiers, vertical, and buldge.

315 will be meaty as hell on the back, the wide tires will look sick on your car, but even with 275 your v6 if not mildly modded will struggle to turn them, not to mention if you have decent tires your car will bogg when you try to sping them, id go no wide then 275 at the max, i ran 245/45/17 on my v6 and it worked well, i hooked up good even when launching a 3 grand, but could easily break them loose when doing a burnout, put 315s on that car you will sure as hell reduce alot if not all tire spin on the little v6, but it will be overkill, at one point i had 225s on the front and 245s on the back of my v6, 245 is more then enough for you but if you want get 245s on the front and 275s on the back and you will have that nice look you want
