Square Fitment

E90jonno · 01-17-2011, 12:52 PM

So getting new shoes at the weekend i hope going 8.5 front and 9.5 rears looking to get a square tyre fitment i guess 235_35_R19 for 9.5 but not sure on the fronts any help?

Did i look but couldn't find what i wanted.

Any pics would be nice.

Square tires on a staggered set up such as 8.5" up front and 9.5" will look very silly. What's the purpose? You won't want to rotate staggered wheels

sorry i think i might of said it wrong to what you think. i mean square tyre setup so the walls are dead flat on both front and rears.

For a 8.5/9.5 setup, 235 and 265's will be square with the rims lip.

Also depends on the tire brand right? I would think 245/35/19 with 275/35/19 would be a very square set-up.

Correct. Some tire brands may have a hair of a stretch such as a Toyo T1R. Most 235/265's are fairly square on a 8.5/9.5" though.

I think 245 and 275 will give the best square look that you're looking for.
