17x9's all around, widest tires possible? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

rolling on megan racing track coilovers and stock rims right now (s13 hatch). just got some Fno1r-c 17x9's +20 for the car and i'm looking for tire options. i was really thinking of 255/40-17's all the way around, or those in the front and some 275/40-17's in the rears. not really looking to sit my car on the ground at all and with the stiff track springs i don't think i'll have any body lean, so i guess i'm just wondering if they'll fit. i also plan on running +20mm front fenders and stock rears.

255's in the front might hit the coilover and rub. I think if you go with 245/40 front and 265/40 or 265/35 in the rear with some camber it'll fit good.
