So I have a very tight budget for Mods this summer and I was considering getting new tires. I still have the Pirelli Summer tires that came with the optional 20in rims. They only have a couple hundred miles on them. The specs are 265/35/20. I have a new set of rims that are 10in wide. Should I sell the Pirellis for a few hundreds dollars and get new tires or should I just wear out the Pirellis this summer and get new tires next summer?

For the new tires I was considering Nitto invos 295/35 OR 315 for the rear and 275/35 for the front. I was considering Michelin Super Sports but they are out of my Budget. How do the Nittos compare.

The 265/35/20 would be a bit of a stretch on the new 10" wheels, but if your ok with it then I would wear them out and then switch so you dont loose money, but the choice is yours.

As for new tires consideration, the Nitto tires are a very good option, PSS are awesom but Nitto are very good for the price.

As for tire sizes here are some you can do just like you said.

275/35/20 & 315/35/20 ( Nitto Invo, Toyo Proxes 4+ )

285/35/20 & 305/35/20 ( Goodyear Eagle F1)

You can also run a 285/35/20 all around if you want to run a square setup.

Thats what I was worried about the tire stretching I really don't like the look. But 315s on a 10in for the nittos would be okay? I hear they run a little bit narrower than other tires.

Ya a 265 is a stretch on a 10, at minimum a 275 is needed.

A 315 on a 10 is perfectly fine it adds a nice beefy look while providing rim protection, also yes the nitto does sit slim but it doesnt mean it'll stretch at all.

Youll be good with a 315 tire on the back and a 275 up front :headbang:
