Yeah, they're in already, just waiting on BN and five lug, and paint!

I'd waaaay rather rock 235/40 in the rear, but I don't have money for tires, so I just use what I get from local dealerships, which are almost always 225/45.

Thanks for the help though, dude.

Since I had such a hard time finding this combo besides the ones pictured above, here is a 215/40/17 on a 10.5. Mounted SO easily on these VS-KFs. Blew my mind. Seated the back bead and aired them right up. No fire needed.

I really like that stretch. Ive definitely seen tires that stretch ugly.

Im doing 205-40 and 215-40 S-drives on 18x9.5s.
Was thinking about doing Falken 512s on the rear, but damn those tires seem to be made of clay lol.

For sure, dude. I'll let you know.

They would fit great with just the 25mm spacers, but I also just put in rack spacers and knuckles, so they hit the tension rods. Also, they just barely fit under the front fenders, but with a little more camber, they'd fit great.





17x10.5 -14 all around and like -5/-7 camber f/r.

215/40 f
225/45 r

So yeah, the 215s held on great. They separated a bit from the bead when I let the air down to 35psi, but they held on in the bumpy ass lot that the event was held on.

props on getting those to fit and making them look so damn good!
i was guna try to run a 215 but i just gave up and got a 17x9-6 front instead =P

looked great when the wheel was turned though ha

i did the phonebook trick but instead used a rubber mallet and pulled the front fenders super easy
it ended up fitting pretty good but i was never really happy with the outcome - ignore the odd looking toe(illusion)
