Doesnt he have a 345 on his car? That doesnt seem very limited to me.

You want a wide tire or a tall tire? 26" tall tires suck. A 295 28" tall tire will dominate a 345 26" tire

Not sure. I know I went one size up to a 255 on Kristen's GTO and that's about all you can fit without rolling/cutting!

I had a Nitto DR 295 on my gto. Lovell springs and cut fenders.

So you are saying he can run a 345-30-18 but not a 345-35-18? Has it even been tried to fit 345-35-18 on his car?

As far getting traction its not all about tires. There are other things he can do with his car to get traction working.

Sidewall man sidewall.

I understand sidewall.. the sidewall is a % of the aspect ratio. 345 = aspect ratio.

345-30-18 = a 103.5 mm tall sidewall
345-35-18 = a 120.75 mm tall sidewall

Like I said, has it even been tried to put the bigger tire on? The MT 345-35-18 is 28" tire. Next thing is I am pretty sure he has a eboost2 on the car. Why isnt boost by gear setup to get max per gear without spinning?

I'm not sure. I just know when you do what they did to the tubyou lose a but of clearance. Jeremy likes the way it looks how it is though. I would be surprised if the car ever sees a good tire. Good tire meaning on a 15" rim not an 18.

Btw the second number is the aspect ratio not the first

SIC GTO

I run 275/40/17 everything's stock! Drag bags and you should be able to run 275/60/15.

Guess the smaller turbos with better wheel fit that motor much better and the ball bearings spooled faster making more power across the board. I had a similar thing happen when I tried 60mm twins vs 70mm twins on my mild sbc. 70's were down on power. Took 2-3psi more to match trap speeds the 60's would do, but the 60's went faster in the 1/8 mile and ET was alittle better because of that.

Nice combo, alot of power!

the 345/35/18 MT is a good tire. I put down well over 900rw on them in 2nd gear with my old Viper. If Jeremy won't use a 15" wheel that is his best bet

Yeah idk why he doesn't get something like those...

Jeremys a good friend of mine so I feel comfortable saying this. He won't race it at that power level. Nor does he need to be.

Or Jeremy, I can modify your rear control arms so you can fit a 325/50r15.

Raise it, no point in all that power if you can't use it

This is what I've always said about high hp cars and not having a tire to use all the power, but I guess im different. I would hate to build a car with **** ton of power and not enjoy it like it was built for. JMO To each's own..
