Does anyone know if LMR runs black friday sales on their wheels?

Used to pre-covid - but it was something around 10%, nothing that would make them substantially cheaper.Does anyone know if LMR runs black friday sales on their wheels?
Forget it. I've beat this to death. I currently have 19x10 /19x11 with 285-35/19 in the front and 305-35/19 in the rear. I didn't want to lower it and I wanted to keep the same height profile. I also wanted a little more beef to the sidewall because my roads are not the best. The 305 is flush with the rim. I wanted a little more tire bulge, to protect the rim, but I didn't get it. The 285 will be quite stretched. Tire choices get scarce when you get up in that range too. There are more choices if you went with a 20" wheel.We just bought my woman a set of these in 10/11.
Trying to stick with 40 series sidewalls to avoid lowering springs. Been there done that.
Planning on going with Michelin super sports in the rear. 285 40 19 has an 11.2 inch tread width.
Tire rack says they'll fit in an 11 inch rim but I don't like the stretched look.
Anyone have these tires on an 11 inch rim?
I love to see how they look before buying them.
The other option would be 10 inch square setup.
Thanks
Do you prefer a staggered look or are you just trying to eliminate wheel gap? Personally, I like to run square just from a tire rotation standpoint. As far as the 285/40R19, that’s basically an identical size (overall tire height) as I run with my 285/35R20. Here’s a pic so you can see how that height of a tire looks on stock suspension. Fills the gaps nicely IMO.We just bought my woman a set of these in 10/11.

Got it. Yeah the 285’s will fit on the 11” wheels but they will look a bit stretched. How much depends on the tire. I haven’t come across 285 MPSS on a 10” wheel so not sure how stretched it will look. Maybe check out Fitment Industries website, they have a whole gallery of stuff people put on their cars. They might have some pics of 285’s on 10” wheels (maybe not the specific tires or even a Mustang) that should give you an idea of what it might look like.Hey thanks for the reply.
Yeah. That looks REALLY nice.
So yeah, we're trying to fill the wheel gap and of course go wider for traction.
But we've already bought the wheels.
I have the afore mentioned tires on a 10 inch wheel and it looks like it would fit fine on an 11.
Neither of us care about rotating tires, in real life we're far too lazy.....Mainly trying to avoid the stretched tire look and lowering springs.
Lots of road kill to clear and shitty roads.
If I had the chance to do it again I would not get lowering springs. Even though you get a great look, the issue with speed bumps and driveways, high parking lot entry, etc. was too much of a bother. You have to be too delicate. What I really wanted in retrospect was a level look...the same ride height but without the downward rake.Forget it. I've beat this to death.

Hey thanks. I'd forgotten about Fitment industries. I'll check them out.Got it. Yeah the 285’s will fit on the 11” wheels but they will look a bit stretched. How much depends on the tire.

Yeah my bad I meant 11” for Fitment Industries pics. Been a long day LOL. 285 is the perfect size for a 10” wheel IMO, although 275 fits just fine too. Good luck!Hey thanks. I'd forgotten about Fitment industries. I'll check them out.
But I actually have the 285/40 MPSS tires on my 10 inch rears.
Not stretched at all, in fact a little bulge, which I prefer.
But on an 11 inch wheel is what I'm wondering about.
Those are about the widest 40 series 19 inch tires I know of.
We're planning on 275/40/19 Michelin 4S or whatever the new SS is.Yeah my bad I meant 11” for Fitment Industries pics. Been a long day LOL. 285 is the perfect size for a 10” wheel IMO, although 275 fits just fine too. Good luck!
Oh yeah, those look perfectly fine.This is 275/40. Im 19x10 square.![]()

It is lowered.Oh yeah, those look perfectly fine.
But yours is lowered isn't it?
