I am ready to go to wider set up been on stocks for a year and a half. Leaning to the SVE R350's in a square set up. I like the project 6 version better but a little out of my price range. My question is it better to just get the Wheels and buy the tires separate or their package deal with the NT555?

Nittos :eek:

Get the tires you want, don't get stuck with something for two years just because.

Shopping around found someone selling them is this a good fit? Kind of wanted to stay with 19's but I know nothing on wheels and won't act like I do.

20x11 Project 6GR Black Black Rear
Nitto NT555 275/35/20 Front

I'm running these sizes of wheels and have 285/35's in front and 315/35's in rear with 35 offset. And I'm lowered on an Eibach Pro-Kit and I never had any rubbing anywhere, no camber adjustments needed either. Depending how much you are lowered (if you are) and what offset those wheels are, they should easily fit. And like NightmareMoon said, save up and get what you really want, because it's more expensive to buy this stuff twice.

Thanks for the reply I am not lowered yet. He told me the fronts offset is 35 and the rears are 50.

Then the fronts shouldn't be an issue. But 50 offset in the rear? That sounds like a lot of wheel under that fender, but then again, I'm no tire/wheel expert. Maybe someone else can chime in with experience in that offset in the rear.

I believe your rears are a 50 offset.

OP, here is the overall diameters for a bunch of different sizes. I got bored and made it a while back. Also I made a thread about tire sizes but not very interesting, you could search it. As far as rim/tire size I just recently been convinced by Bmacil to not go too wide on a rim. So your above sizes would be correct. From what I have been told, basically a 275-285 tire for a 10 inch wheel and a 305-315 for a 11 inch wheel would be good. Of course each tire manufacturer is different. Personally I just decided to go with a Firestone Indy 500 275/35-20 tire on a rovos Pretoria 20x10 et 38 rim for my sqaure summer set up. I never ran Nittos and people either seem to love or hate them so I went with the Indy's because no one hated on them. Good luck!

I picked them up today. Only issue I see is they were on a 14 car with the tpms installed. Will this work on my 17 or will I need to take the ones out of my stock tire and add them to my project6gr wheels
