Guess I'm having to re-adjust to the look. I was running 295/35's and 255/40's and went back to a 275/40 in the rear and left the 255/40's up front. Does it ever look tall to me now in the rear. Makes the wheel look much smaller. Lol

I've had 245/45's all around, 275/35, 245/40 combo, 275/40, 245/45 combo and the 295/35, 255/40 combo. I think my fav was the 295, 255 combo. If I can't get used to these 275/40's, I'll have to go back to that.

Anyone else made the switch to a shorter tire and gone back? I didn't realize how big the difference was... Lol

I have a few misc pics I took on my phone with the 295/35, 255/40 combo on it. Shoot me a text and I'll send em to ya. 832-298-0768. Or... I'll send em to my email and post em up tomorrow if I can.

What wheels did you have the 295 on and what tire was it?

I'm running Nitto Invo 275/35 on stock wheels in rear and love the look. IMO 275/40 is too chunky.

I agree. How can someone possibly post on here, saying something about how their car looks, and not post pictures?!

What the hell is going on around here?!

All sizes were on stock wheels. The 295's were some Toyo T1S's. Old tires but a buddy have em to me for free so I test fit em to see if they'd work. They fit like the Goodyear GSD3's I had in a 275/40 but shorter. Maybe Toyos run narrow but they didn't look bad at all.

I'll try to post pics in a bit. Haven't even taken any since I put the new nitto 275/40's on a couple days ago. Figured so many people here were running the 245/45, 275/40 combo that pics wouldn't be necessary. Lol

The 275/35, 245/40 combo looked nice but a little too short IMO. I was running Dunlop sport maxx DSST's in that size and didn't really care for em. I'd say a 285/35 out back and 245 or 255/40 up front would be perfect on this car.

a 40 series tire looks big on a modern vehicle i think. just my thought.

I'll keep looking for a deal on the size I really want. Couldnt pass up the pair of 275/40 Nitto 555's I picked up for $75 for both.

295's on stockers? daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamnn!

Yeah... I thought the same before I did it. They didn't look much different than the 275's

Are you lowered? My current street tires are stock sized while my track tires are 275/35/18 all the way around. Noticeably more wheel well gap which sucks too.

Yeah im lowered. I think im going to drop down to a 285/35/18 in the rear and run either a 255/40 or 245/40 up front. Although i will say... these 275/40's ride a little nicer being a little taller.

For all intensive purposes 275/40 is the same height as 245/45. I run 275/40 in the back and love it.

Yeah... They are the same diameter as the 245/45's. They didn't look bad when I ran them before but after running the shorter tires, switching back makes them look so much bigger to me. Maybe if I swap the 255/40's in the front out for some 245/45's, it'll look balanced and won't stand out so much.

I've got the 275/40 GSD 3's in the rear and they do look chunky. Still way better than stock

I had those exact same tires on mine a short while ago but they didnt last long. Then i went shorter for awhile and now im back to a 275/40. Just ordered some 275/35 and 245/40 BFG KDW II's though so i may throw these nittos up for sale with 300 miles on the pair.
