Trying to decide between the two tire sizes, any help/opinions welcome. Looking for the best looking setup as well as the most functional and problem free. Thanks

9.5 +22 w/ 275/35's

Shaybird · 01-15-2013, 05:01 AM

Any issues? You lowered on coilovers?

pistolpete69916 · 01-15-2013, 05:08 AM

No issues, 2 inch drop on coilovers, fronts dont need to be touched at all, rears needed to be rolled, -1.5 all around zero toe.

im in the same shoe as you are....thinking of getting some 255/35/18

265 or 275 on 9.5 fits perfect, not too many options in 255 but that would have just a very slight stretch and still be good.

i wouldnt go as far as 275. thats just a little unnecessary for 9.5" wheels. 265s should be perfect and look great. would also give you some wiggle room on the rubbing side of things.

This man is correct. 265's won't require any fender mods, but 275's may or may not require some fender mods.

Best looking tire, size wise?

is this a joke thread?

FYI a 265 with a +20 9.5 will most likely rub in the rear with passengers or hard cornering if lowered any

**edit added info based on height based on Macs reminder. Thanks.
