Need help choosing tires!

[Ewheels]

a side question - did you notice any positive effect from the gurney flap? that's ZL1Addons, right?

That's actually the RTR gurney flap.
And I added it to the car back when I was still buying crap to look cool so it's been on my car ever since the first track day so I have no way to know if it helped or not. I doubt it does anything beneficial though.

Thank you so much! This really helps me.
Since I’m looking for 19x10+35 as well on the same wheels.

probably a dumb question but I know sve 19x10/11 kit has +35 off set in front and +50 in back. If going squared you use +35 offset in back too?

sorry new to offsets but I’m assuming since rear is 19x11 it would require +50 but if I run 19x10 I’d run +35 offset even in the rear.

Just as @Therealmattlex mentioned above, yes it would be +35 offset front and rear. The wheels sticks out more on the rear but still under the fender. That's why 19x10 +35 is so good. No other changes need to be made and you can rotate.

For my 19x11 set, those are +50 front and rear but it requires 25mm spacer on the front and longer studs.

Correct, you would get +35 all around.

The nice thing about squared is you can rotate them. before I had the SP2s I had the PP wheels and ran a 20mm spacer. with the SP2s I don't use any spacers.

Keep in mind a 285 is 30mm/1.18" wider then you factory tires. It will make a noticeable difference.

Thank you for confirming that! I wanted to be sure before I got wrong offsets lol.

You have any pics of your car with SP2?

Yeah the difference at the outside fender between a 11" ET50 wheel and a 10" ET35 is only 2.3mm. From the sides they look the same. I daily on square 285/35R19s on 19x10"ET35 wheels and no regrets. Being able to rotate with identical wheels and tires on all four corners just makes everything easy.

With the right parts (extended studs, slip on spacers, and camber plates), you can run a 305 tire on a 11" wheel on all four corners. That's completely overkill on the street for most people, but a lot of us track like that..

This, however, is just the daily square 285s setup, with a little bit of extra front camber.
