what wheel specs did you use for the 295/30/19 up front?
Will that configuration fit the project6gr front wheel(19x10)? I just bought 19x10" from and 11" rear, set looking for as much tire as I can comfortably fit up front.
19x10 & 19x11

285/35/19 & 325/30/19

Would work and fit perfectly...

Even on a lowered mustang..

I'm gonna bump this with a new question.

Has anyone had any success fitting a 295/35/20 up front on a 20x10 ET35?
Easily there are even members that do 20x10.5 ET 45 with a 8 mm spacer and 305/30/20 tires all around

Works really well.

If I went 295/35. What would look "right" with that combo?
Also if I stick to a 285/35. What looks right with that?
For the Velgen wheels right ?

285/35 is better

295/30 would be next then 305/30

I'll be lowered an 1 1/4inch all the way around.

So what I'm considering is a combo of 285/35/20 and a 305/35/20

or a 295/35/20 and a 315/35/20

But I'm not really sure how it'll fit and what I'll need to do.
I know the first setup will fit fine without any changes after what I've read.
Not sure about the 295 and 315


I might even consider a 295 and a 305

But I need professional advice.

I know there are hundreds of pics all over this forum with tire setups, but do you have something showing how this looks with wheel gap and side profile?

I'm still with the stock PZero and PP rims, but running Steeda Linear Sport springs and their Pro-Action adjustables.

I was already wondering how the 35 profile might change things with the look and the ride, but 30 seems like it will be real slim. I know with the width and bigger tire it changes things a little but just not an expert on it.

Main concern is not wanting a gap, with the ride suffering with absorbing every bump and pothole in my spine.

Thank you!

I'm starting to lean towards 285/35-19 squared, although keeping the 40 profile with a 285 is also a thought.

Difference in diameter (28 to 26.9) as well as revolutions is significant (743 to 774). tire width is a half-inch wider on the 40 series as well. This is with the MPSS tires. Guessing I'd have to reprogram the speedo stuff to have this work right?

Wondering how much more wheel gap I'll have by going 35.

Here is a website that will give you the exact dims of pretty much any tire. Not all 285 35's for example are the same size. I'm now running Nitto NT555 G2's 305 35 19 back, 285 35 19 front on 11's and 10's respectively. Based on the math comparing the Nittos to the stock PZeros, I have about 1/8" more wheel gap on rear, and 1/4" more gap on front.

*Click on the brand icon, find your tire, click that and it will take you to a page with all tire size info..

What wheels are you running here and what are their offsets? Tires appear to be Nitto G2's, correct?

I'm looking to go 295 squared for track...

The 285/305 combo is pretty perfect coming from a PP wheel setup. It's the same front-to-rear sidewall ratio, and the same width difference (+20mm to the rear). On a car lowered on the usual suspects (BMR, Steeda, etc.) it looks _fantastic_.

My car, recent cruise in, on beautiful MRR M600s (20x10 ET35, 20x11 ET50) on Nitto G2s in 285/35 and 305/35:

Thread revival! lol. 285's/295's are totally do-able with the right offset and camber.

I run a 305 in the front and have know folks who have done a 315.
