  • I am confused...please help me guys....

    I am soon to be getting new wheels and tires for my Car. I am getting 18's all around but I got a few questions. I want to keep my speedometer as accurate as possible so I gotta get some tire sizes here. My rear wheels are probably gonna be
    9's while and I plan to put 275/35/R18 tires on there. That sound good? Should I put the same wheels on the from or get some that are a little less wide like 8's and throw some 255/35/R18 tires on there? Remember...I want to keep my speedometer as accurate as possible so I want to match as close to stock as I can. I hope I made myself clear. Thanks for the help guys.

    smaller fron tires will help you turn quicker(increase your effective turning ratio). the stock 235-55's are 26.1771 in., the 275-35-18's are 25.5787 in. 275-40-18's are 26.6614. you'll be cool w/ the 275-35's on back. just remember that you're going a bit slower than the speedo says. the front's will be 25.0275 in. tall. I say go for it.

      Hey thanks for the help. I went down to the wheel place today and got quoted for about $2100. I am gonna do it as soon and I finish getting the cash. Thanks again, I appreciate it.
