How do you guys deal with tire wear? I can't believe how badly my tires are wearing after i dropped my car on H and R sports. The outer and inner portion balds in 10k miles.

that sounds like under inflated tires instead of camber.

How often do you change tires?

Will I rub on H&R Race springs? which is 1.5 in the front drop and 2.0 drop in rear. I had 19x9.5 in rea with 265 and it never rubbed. Do I need to roll my fenders? LMK thanks.

I would use the tires you have now (with 35% section width), they would do better at being very very thin.

If you do the math, your rim is 279.4mm wide. Your tire stretched out is 392mm (245mm + 30% section width both sides).... putting it on would be nearly impossible (equivalent to a 279.4/16/19). Your tire would sit from the rim to top of the tire at 1.76", even less with load/car's weight... pretty much riding on razor blades. Something that tiny would have to be tended to very VERY often because if you lose too much pressure, you could come outside and see your tire spontaneously completely deflated sitting on the rim... or worse, you could have adverse consequences on the freeway.

on another note, your current tires are totally useable so that would save you around what... $600?

I have 26k on the fronts @-2.2 and 16k rears @ -2.5(with no alignment/toe correction). I can flip them and try to get another 12k on each easy.

What tires are you using?

I def need some camber with my setup (255/30. I'm still rubbing (seems to be from the rear bumper portion, not the actual fender) after the roll. Need to go get rid of the portion where its rubbing today.

Had to raise it since it was rubbing baddddd....

soslower82 · 11-28-2011, 09:22 AM

As it sits now having raised it 1/4".

Wonka · 11-28-2011, 09:55 AM

As low as I'm willing to go...

aa001 · 11-28-2011, 10:31 AM

Does this count as being slammed lol?
Lowest I can go at the front because the bumper scrapes at almost every bump.
We have LOTS of speed bumps out in the uk

Im on handcocks :P.....Throw 3 fk bumpstops on the rears (each side) and more camber then you can go lower again. Are you on spacers? Im still kinda shocked at how bad youre rubbing with t1r's.
