not worried about fitment or full lock hitting. custom setup

My concern is street driving. Roads around here are pretty good.
Im thinking nt05 front and nt05r rear(due to high hp)
315 all around for better traction/cornering

I would like opinions from people who HAVE ACTUALLY used 315 all around.


i been reading about this topic and people swear that it will beall over the road?(yet they never had it)

but track guys say it will be fine(yet they dont run them on the streets Lol)

im a bit confused as my 275 tires up front feels like any other front tire. if anything switching from 255 to 275 tires up front made the car feel very much planted. so im considering 315 tires.

I've been running a 315 square setup (315/30/18 Toyo R888's on 18x11 Forgestar F14's) on the track and street for over 6 months now. I've put over 4000 street miles on my car since then and honestly it drives no different than my old 275 setup (other than having more grip than you could ever use on the street). Apart from the grip, the best thing about a square setup is now you can rotate tires and get a lot more miles from a set.

And personally I love the look of having a big meaty tire up front, skinnies always looked weird to me.

thats good to hear. no clearance issues with fronts on your ta?

how many miles left on those r888 you think after 4k?

None up front, plug and play.

Plenty of tread left on my r888s I wouldn't be suprised if I made it to 10k miles

what was the backspace or offset?

10k is pretty good. that should equal 2 years for me.


thanks

40mm offset for both front and rear, will be different for camaros.

Alignment is very important for cars with big tires to drive nicely on the street. Make sure you take it to a specialist.
