So as I'm getting more and more hooked into the RR scene, I'm wanting to slowly migrate to better tire specifically for track days. I'm currently running 285/35/20 PS4's on 20x10 SVE squared set up. Although they do a great job on the track overall, I would like stickier tires to be able to push the car a little more and not have to blow through expensive street tires quickly. I was looking for a budget squared wheel set up (with current BF deals, looks like SVE the best option for 19x10" or 19x11" wheels) and tire sizes to go with them. I've been reading that 18-19" the typical wheel size, but there seems to be a dizzying amount of information for tire width choices with the varying requirements for supporting those sizes (seems like when going for 305 or above then get into spacers, studs, etc). My goals are really to ease into it and to make it easy overall. I see when you get into some tire widths it requires changing out the wheels studs, spacers, etc etc. Is there a max tire width that can be run without worry about rubbing issues or needing wheel spacers, etc etc? I realize it depends greatly on the wheel and corresponding offsets, but I have to assume I'm not the only one who is..... well lazy atm. If spacers are a must, I assume its relatively painless to add them while swapping in track pads, but then I worry about the waterfall effect of needing to put in longer wheels studs etc etc. Thoughts, advice? Thank you!
