Hey everyone; my 06 GT has about 23,xxx miles on it and pretty much my front tires are bald(there were in the rear and my rear tires are on there way out.(my dad not to happy about how quick i went throw my 1st sent of tires, but thats anther story)

my 1st question is when about did you guys go through ur 1st set of tires? and can i get wider tires?

 

My stock rims at 20k still have some good meat left on them but I wanted new rims. You can go wider but are you wanting to keep the stock rims?

 

Well, some will go through others faster than most.
Wider, yes you can...do you have the 18' wheels or 17' wheels?

 

yea; i did put near enough info. 18' rims and yes due to cost i would love to keep them. I only want them a lil bit wider, nothing big. I just know my buddy Z has wider tires, come on...lol

but Im woundering are there tires suppose to get like 40k out of...lol, dam burnouts.

 

I'm just about to hit 50,000KM and still have more than half life on mine ahha...yes, i do burnouts

 

so what is the tire size; stock is 235/50r18, do i go 255/45? or 245??

 

255/45/18 work perfect...near stock height and fit no problem...


if u want'em I have a set of BFGs about 3000 gentle miles.... the set is yours for $300....pm me if ur interested...

 

^ exactly what I have...with no issues.

 

Hi johnnyv8,

You should try rotating your tires every other oil change or about 5K-6K miles. This makes your tires last a LOT longer. The best fitting, widest tire you can run on the stock 18"x8.5" wheels are going to be 255/45x18" tires. Look into a top of the line All-Season tire in this size as they tend to last quite a bit longer than dry performance tires do.

HTH!
