Stock 275/40s, lowered 285/35s. I've had both but in Hankook and now Michelin. Ran the 275/40s on drift wheels on the stock suspension. Good overall set up for daily driving.I got mine in today. I'm still torn between going 285/35/19 or 275/40/19 Firehawk Indy 500s.
19x10 squared... any thoughts?

Maybe I will go for 275/40. I am at stock height and the pony is my DD. I am worried about the wheel gap. Perhaps when the tires have run their course I'll get lower and go 285. There is a considerable cost difference between the two sizes with most tires I've seen as well..275/40 fills out the wheel well more...285/35 will give the appearance of more wheel gap (not ideal if you're not lowered).
pretty much. There's nothing wrong (even good) with 275/40 on the 10's as well. For casual track I don't see a problem at all. And what are you going to do with fat tires on the street anyway... Now if you want to run with @BmacIL at Joliet / Gingerman etc. you'll have to come up to 10/11 or 11's.However will the 19x10 wheel sit flush at the rear ?
I don't know if it's just me but i feel that the 285/35 tires look good on these wheels as opposed to a 275/40 tire.pretty much. There's nothing wrong (even good) with 275/40 on the 10's as well.

Little bit cheaper if you're looking for the Ohtsu tiresI might go 285/35...amazon is selling ohtsu fp8000 for $130 a piece. By far the cheapest I've seen that's not an off brand tire.
I have a set of the bronze, 19x10 and 19x11, that I'd be willing to sell. I got them back in October and have not put them on the car yet. Still sitting in the boxes at my house. They were already ceramic coated and I'd be willing to sell. PM me if you are interested.If they ever get in stock.
Shorter, not smaller.A 285/35 tire is smaller than a 255/40, so it would present as more wheel gap. Looks good though!
Uh sure. I meant smaller outside diameter...Shorter, not smaller.
I'm already lowered 1" inch all around on FP Track kit.Overall using 19 inch tires the difference should be 0.18 inches in height. With the 35 profile shorter. You can always lower the car to close the gap and improve your stance. https://www.discounttire.com/learn/tire-size-calculator
