295s On All 4's anyone?

[whtcanbrwnd04u]

Anyone running 295s all around? I'm wanting to get the SVE wheels and run a 295/35/19 all around so i can rotate as tires for 19's aren't cheap. I'm dropped on sportlines & i don't want any issues. If this won't work than i will look at a different set of wheels. I don't want to run a 275/35 as its not tall or wide enough.

I'm running 295-40-18 Falken Azenis on all four corners. They're mounted on 18x10 Roush's.

^ Very nice. Thank you!

I run 295/30/18 Hoosiers on all 4 corners when autocrossing and 285/35/18 Hankook RS3's on the street. You should be fine with 295's. I'm going 315/30/18 Hoosiers for next year. <evil grin>

Won't a 295 buldge on a 9.5" wheel?

Yes, 295's are not recommended for 9.5" wide wheel.

Here is a visual to show you using an .xls spreadsheet. I am showing this comparing a well known acceptable combination of 275/40/18 on 18x9.5 +45 compared to he drifts 295/35/19 19x9.5 +35.

As you can see the tire buldges quite a bit. According to Hankook Tires 295/35/19's should be used on wheel widths of 10 - 11".

The spreadsheet is located http://www.lowered.eu/misc/files/Tyre_Calculator_English.xls

I see they do bulge on that graph you posted. A little bulge won't bother me as long as its not sticking out the fender line. The pics posted above with the gt500 looks great to me..

Based upon the calculations my guess is it would most likely be outside of the fender line.

Its up to you on this. I just wanted to provide some data to you.

Thank you. All your saying is that the tire will bulge on the wheel right? They won't stick past the fender in the front will they?

Its hard to say, but it is possible...

My buddy has 295's all around on his 2010 GT500 with the Ford 18x9.5 GT500 wheels, and they fit near perfectly. They're Falken Azenis 295-40-18's just like mine. His has a slight bulge, I mean slight. I'll see if I can find some pics.

Hell yea, please do!

This is a picture of 285/35 RS3's on my 18x9.5. These tires are actually a little wider than my 295/30 Hoosiers.

Interested too, I ran those tires on 18x10 with perfect fit.. now I have a 9.5" and think the 275 could be a touch wider.

Those on backwards?
