Achu waiting patiently for your car to come back alive.
For me meatier tyres look better, and better traction in the dry. I run the max on a 9.5J, 275. You can easily run 275 on an 11j but its just rubbing issues depending on your offset. Sometimes wider tyres are cheaper, so go for the max! |

yeah 275 is the smallest i should be running on 11j, but at et30 it could rub... i thiiinkkk if i roll my arches to the max and max out the camber, i could fit in some 275s... then i'll sell these falkens and buy some new vreds

Vreds are what i run they are very good. Rears are running low so i might sell the front and try out PSS. I guess you're going for the stretched look? Have you, or are you going to be modding for performance? If so then the wider the better |

and noo i want to run as much tyre as possible, but i want my rim to be flush as well, that's why i went for 11j - so i can run a fat tyre and still have a bit of stretch

a little teaser... well a bit more than a teaser.... the repairs are coming to an end... a few little niggles to sort out: - the newly wrapped parts are a slightly different colour to the old parts so im having words with 3M; also the bonnet is too be wrapped, but a little differently - there's a few little problems with the alignments of windows and tiny bits that need to go on - i'm soon getting a security system installed with a proximity, shock and tilt sensor (maybe even remote start + GPS tracking) - a good clean! after all this is done, i'm gonna take it to a nice location for some epic photography and i shall post them all up anyways, i'd like to thank all you guys for being really supportive, i know you wouldn't think reading words on a laptop would make me feel better about this whole situation but it really did... i don't even care that it's hit my wallet, my insurance has gone up and my car is a Cat D... i just love how it looks now
