MPSS for stock PP rims

[ArabianOak]

Does anyone know what the biggest size MPSS tires that will fit on stock PP rims? Rear only...

I'm looking for a more street friendly tire that can handle a blown setup...the NT05r are not holding up well and SUCK in the rain...I don't drive the car in the rain but have gotten stuck in several storms the last month...scary! haha...

Thanks!

This has been beaten to death in forced induction threads. You have too much power for any street tire, including MPSS. You will sacrifice dry traction all the way into 4th gear with a street tire for wet traction if you leave the R compounds. Get a 20" replica PP rear wheel set from AM and run 555Rs in 305/35/20. They do just fine in the rain. I previously ran 305 NT05Rs on my stock PP wheels and I agree with you they are horrid and do not last for shit. I have driven many times in moderate to mod/heavy rain at 70mph on 555Rs just fine. And they last between 5 to 8k depending on how you treat them.

Also how do you have a flex tune for Blower, pretty sure Lund doesn't do that.

Awesome info. Not on a flex tune. Just a custom 93 octane vmp tune.

My nt05r have not even last 2k! Crazy.

No problem man. That's the setup I have. 20in rears with stock 19s up front.

305/35/19, just did that for 2 of my buddies GTPP's

Obviously get the 20x10s if you go that route.

305's on the stock 19x9.5's?

Correct it is commonly done on the board.

Sounds like a really bad idea, that will make the car's handling sloppy:

I would probably just keep a 275 on the rear.

Nitto 305 is closer to a 295. People run them all the time on factory wheels with no issues. A true 305 is pushing it for sure.

Ironically it hasnt from the local setups we've done like that.

The nitto 555 don't come in a 19???
