quick tire size question

[thstone]

Sorry, I should have mentioned something about the variance. I was just trying to explain how the 225/40 in the front is an exact fitment where the 265/35 in ther rear is not.

Also, remember that the primary reason to go to 225/45 in the front is to reduce the inherrent understeer. If you also go wider in the rear, then you've mostly negated that benefit.

If you want to start talking about the diameter of wheels, then you should talk about the performance aspect of it. Smaller tires are easier to spin and give you a better gearing ratio for racing. The wideness is also extremely helpful. If it fits (Maybe use 5mm spacers), then i dont see the problem with having 265/35's on the rear.... Stock rim size is just a place to start... I guess you're going to try to tell me that the people that put 19's on their boxsters are ruining everything about the car?

Well sir, you're most definatly wrong about that. Your ABS will only slightly be affected with that small of a change, as will your speedo.... (maybe +/- 1mph at 50mph)....
