I have 18 x 9 and 18 x 10.5 DD Black Bullitts that I want to put on my My 05 V6 - What tires sizes do I need for proper fit? Thanks-

 

The front wheels are 18" x 9" (+40mm) and the rears are 18" x 10.5's" (+50mm ). They are 5-lug (5 on 4 ½

 

I am running 275/35's and 295/30's on that same size rim. Will go 315'son rearnext time around.

thanks man -

 

You have more fender well clearance than I do, so you may like a higher profile (40 series) so there is less gap. You will very likely need to re-calibrate the speedo when done.

What tires are you running? Could I really put a 315 on the rear? I have a handheld tuner I will re-calibrate- Thanks Again.

 

im having the same problem i just got 18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the back i lowered my car with the eibach pro kit so about 1.5 inches was size tire should i got with?

 

Tom, you can go for 315's but it is gonna be tight. You should go with 30 series and MAY have some rubbing on extreme articulation of rear axle. I have no problems as I have installed 1/2" spacer along with longer and stronger lug bolts. I have fenders pretty heavily rolled as well as Griggs GR-40 suspension that completely changes how axle articulates. I think you would be safer to to with 295's and see how that works out first. You can also park your car on a heavy bump so one rear tire is way up in the well, and the other is way down. Crawl under and measure every single dimension (on both sides) that your tire moves toward and do the math for clearance issues.

dowork. Nice to see you picked up the rims Mickey was pimpin' on the Saleen section [sm=smiley20.gif] I actually just was catching up on thread a minute ago and haven't gone to page 3 yet. I think a 265/35 is a nice tire for a 9" rim and a 285/30 is a nice tire on a 10" rim. These arethe stock tires Saleen installs on the '99~'04 cars. This will be fine with the drop you have and will look freakin' sweeeeeeet on your Mineral Grey ride

Since we are on the subject, I will pimp myOWN ride[8D]

I am getting a second set of Saleen replicas from Hardcore Mustangsand getting 9"swidened to 10" for 285/30's up front. Rear 10.5"swill be widened to 11" andrunning 315/30's. All wrapped in Toyo R888's and be bad ****! Before you say "What the....... a 10" wheel up front......? NO WAY!!!!!" No worries, I am installing the Griggs SLA upgrade to front end and could actually go 10.5"s and 315's if I wanted to REEEEEEEEAAAAAALLLLY push it.

Can I get a "Go Jazzer..... [sm=wootwoot.gif]Go Jazzzer [sm=wootwoot.gif]

 

so the tire in the back will be thinner than the front cuz its only going to be 30 instead of 35

 

and do you recommend a tire brand? im trying to get some 2mmrw so they will get here around the same time as the rims
