Rohana rf2 in matte black, i remember the first setup I did haha. Called the guys at rohana they didnt think it would fit. Come to find out it was the worlds first s550 on that combo setup. Came out super sweet and did 315 rears.

I went with these because of the one you did :headbang:....I believe it was a Magnetic GT, found the pic on IG....

If it wasn't for that pic I would have still been looking...LOL

ALL credit goes to you without a doubt...fitment is SPOT on.

Ok so I confirmed that the concavity will not be effected by the lower offset, that is all dependent on the type of you disk $ face style you order. That being the case, can I fit an 11/12 setup on my car with inside clearance of the suspension while not sticking out too far on the outside? Also is 11 square possible if I increase the offset in back more then the front? If not, 10.5 square? Just curious about the offset ranges that would work in those widths for front/back... Keeping in mind that I have front brembos

I have 10.5 ET 25 with 275/35/20 no poke in front but they are stretched slightly. I could run a 285/30/20 in front but might rub in the rear as my Rear wheels poke about 5mm.
Do you have a pic? 10.5 et 25 seems agressive with poke. Thanks

All depends on the brand of the wheel, what model.wheel are you after ?

Ive done a 10 , 10.5, 11 square and a 12 rear its doable . Now the 12 rear used a 305 tire for stretch and the car was on air.

What type of suspension are you going to be on ?

Your running 315s on the back right ?
Sorry but that looks off.

Your rear tire overall height is 28.7" tall, while your front tire is 27.6" tall.

That's almost a 1" difference in overall height. Not a good thing.

Your widths are spot on giving you the same profile look front/rear, but that overall height just looks off to me.

I would have gone with a 315/30/20 which would have made the rear a 27.4" overall height.

Of course, it becomes more difficult to find tires that come in the correct sizes for matching height.

You do realize you said all of that and the tire size you said you would go with is a mere 2 tenths of an inch smaller ?
I doubt that is even noticeable when they are on the car. In person I think the tire sizing looks good and honestly nobody has ever said anything about the tire sizing. I dont rack the car so I wanted a nice big fat tire on the back and that is what I have.
Also why in your opinion is the 1 inch difference a bad thing ? The car is not AWD so am I missing something ? I am not arguing with you in any way, I just went with the tire sizing that was recommended by the vendor so if there is an issue with the different tire sizes someone chime in and let me know. The car drives great and I get a ton of compliments and thumbs up which is always a good feeling.

Thanks for the input fee free to grab a 315/30/20 tire which is the toyo r888 for instance.

I've done both tire sizes

Everyone is free to their personal opinions

Wrong - the size I recommended is 27.4" tall. 28.7" - 27.4" = 1.3" shorter overall. We are talking about the rear tire here.

If your goal was for the fat tire look, well never mind then. Many though don't know any better.

My issue is that vendors are recommending this type of fitment because its lazy and easy.

Also - you need to realize that an overall increase in tire height is changing your final drive ratio. Technically you've slowed yourself down and changed your speedometer to read incorrectly as well.

First off before you start saying anything. Let's stop you right there shall we.

This Paul character is also the guy that's spoken to you on at least 2 pms alright. I'm also the guy that used to work for need 4 speed ,helped consult with Mrr for the m350 and developed the project 6gr wheel besides a number of other things for this community so be very careful how you accuse people.

Second off this ain't easy and lazy stuff ask any vendor here we work our butts off to provide our clients with proper information you don't like it by all means you don't need to use it but do not bash anyone here because of what you consider lazy and easy my friend because you are very wrong.
