Tire Size/ Wheel Offset Advice

[fast Ed]

The previous owner of my 07, a good friend who let me drive it at that time, had 275/40R18 ZIII on 9.5" square for a while. They were OK, nothing special ... performance level matched the price really. I wouldn't say that they match up with other "max performance" category tires, they are a notch below that. For the price they are decent though.

Good to know. That's pretty much what I'm looking for. The car parked next to it has R888's on it. I don't need anything that will make my brains leak out of my ears.

I'm looking at the Sumitomo HRTZ III's now. They get great reviews and are pretty inexpensive. Any of you have any input?

They are black and round, but they're also tractionless shit that wears down pretty fast.

Yes, he should have taken the opportunity to put up too many, too-big pictures while he had the chance.

At least they were relevant to the discussion at hand and not just completely randomly thrown into the discussion! There was also tech there too...

I would pick up a set right now if every single dollar I seem to be spending right now wasn't already going to suspension.

No confirmation if they fit over brembos tho.

20x10 AMRs with 285/30-20 INVOs square will fit, but that tire's pretty short. (26.7")

But yeah, they'll clear by a mile. (I ran those wheels with 275/35-20 for a long time) Interestingly enough, they have HUGE brake clearance too.

Same specs as the AMR 18"x10's so they should fit over Brembo's no problem.

Tires in picture are 275/40/R18 B'stone RE11's
