225/50/16

I bought a set, big challenge now is to get them under the car with enough clearance <_<

 

[DOUGMO]

i wish i could get them to fit my car too.

this is the size that the saloon car class runs and i think they use khumos now so these are probably excess stock..bloody good price for unreal tyres though...what compound are they?


(or still had the skyline as thats the size i used to run on that)

 

[tenji]

have they got 17s?

 

[peasoup]

They are the soft compound. Only one size at that price.

I had 225/35/18s on my car at once stage, so surely its possible?

i wish i could get them to fit my car too.

Do u think I have no chance? :unsure:

Oh well I'll flog them off if they dont fit.

 

[3zercrowd]

DAMN!!!!!!>.<

Why no 205/55(or 50)/15's ?????!!!!!!!!!:thumbsdown:

 

[p3akin]

front should be right, just the rear on the trailing arm. and these tyres are pretty square and wide.

i have run 225/50r16 on 16x16.5 rims before with no issues

just not sure if the offset of the oz will be right to clear

 

[JayRome]

um gsr/evo.... would be something like.... on a 16X7 rim and 225/50..... fronts would be like 45+ish...... rears would be 35+ish to clear everything with those tyres....

 

[DOUGMO]

+35 on the rear with a 225 tyre will hit the rear guard

 

[peasoup]

so even if the car is riding a little high? I take it you've tried :huh:

 

[JayRome]

yup..

olly's car RIP... my rims with 225/50ZR16's all round....

50+ on the front fit but has clearance to move out a lil more
rears at 50+ just hit soo maybe..... 40+ offset...

 

[peasoup]

Not even close

they are ballons rofl

the front is a doer me thinks, but rears, ...

Realistically would need to fabriacte another trailing arm.

They would look **** hot if they could go on but.

^^^^^Thats why 205/50/55/15's FTMFW!^^^^:drool:

 

[JayRome]

[peasoup]

They measure 240mm, no wonder they are fat.

 

[p3akin]
