335 30 18
 
I ordered new rims 18x10 in rear will 335's fit on my car? I have the Eibach sportline springs by the way. Please help!

3V2000GT 10-18-2006 04:52 PM

it will probably be close, my 315's are close

Lances03SVT 10-18-2006 04:58 PM

335's are pretty damn big.With Sportlines it's going to be close for sure.

silverstang04 10-18-2006 05:38 PM

Yea I figured it would be I have adjustable shocks in back so I could stiffen things up. 315 dr's are going to cost me 500 + and I can get these for 400 even and they are Michelien sport pilots, I know they won't grab like dr's but they are desent and will last alot longer.

Be careful to not sacrfice too much performance for looks. Big-ass tires and rims like that on a 250 'ish hp car is really asking a lot. They are gonna drag you down and slow that car quite a bit.

silverstang04 10-18-2006 06:27 PM

Hopefully it won't drag me down to much, I am running 17x9's up front plus I will have a lil pimp juice to back me up, like 75-100. I would rather run the 315 but I'm saving around $130 going this route.

WaterDR 10-18-2006 06:33 PM

Your 3.73's and the juice will help.

silverstang04 10-18-2006 06:43 PM

I've Also been thinking of going 4.10's but that might be to much gear with spray. But @ the same time I like how it pulls with the 4.10's n/a. So all in all I can run these tires with no issue it seems, may have to zip tie the brake line though since the after market control arms don't supply any where to mount it like stock ones.

You have a real good chance of having 335 rub. if they do, itll probably be on the quad shock which is worthless if you have aftermarket shocks and struts anyways... unless you like wheel hop.
lol

silverstang04 10-18-2006 06:53 PM

I've never had wheel hop problems. Are u saying with the removal of my quad shock i will have wheel hop even with the HPM lower control arms?

Usually if your tires are going to rub, itll be on the quad shock. Since you have lower control arms, and rubbed, id remove them. If not id just leave them alone.

ok thanks, any Ideal on how to use this tire calculator?

PureStang 10-18-2006 07:40 PM

id never run a 335 tire unless i had a beefed up rear suspension and side exhaust/dumps your gonna be really close with rubbing on the fender wall also cause you sit so low...

here are 315 BGF DR's on a 18x10 rim and 17x9 in the front
you may not be able to see it but he had steeda competition springs which are equivilant to sportlines height wise

http://myspace-527.vo.llnwd.net/0090...07593527_l.jpg

now just imagine like .5-1" more on each side for 335's

silverstang04 10-18-2006 07:48 PM

I see what ur saying but it's spend $400 for 335 30 18 or $525 $315 30 18 for dr's or any kinda descent radial, their's a guy selling the 335 brand new $400. that guys car looks like it sits lower than mine in that pic. any Ideal on the cost to get my fenders rolled the right way or know some one or somewhere to get a better price than $525 for 315's.

lol

i thought the purpose of the quad shock was to reduce wheel hop?

by the time you got your fender's rolled, you might as well just got 315s

theyre there cause the stock control arms suck to put it in the least...if u have nice aftermarket control arms..it eliminates the purpose of the quad shock..

silverstang04 10-18-2006 08:22 PM

:flameON: Well I guess 315's will be the sensible thing for me to do huh!
