looking to do a really nice tire set up what are the biggest tires i can run front a back, I always enjoy a fat looking track tire lmk what you guys run on yours cars ! pics are always great as well !! btw looking for this kind of look..

that is my M3 i love alot of side wall a beefy tire
as i do track my cars, i would love to run 18's ccw

18x9 ? - 245/40/18 ?
18x10.5 or 11 ? 295/35/18 ? would these even be right ?

 

This is what I run on the track:
245/40/18
305/35/18

 

thanks for the reply ! hows the handling and ride much better ?

 

also what brand tire

 

I don't drive the 18s much on the street so I can't really compare the ride to 19s.

On the track I run PASM on sport with a more aggressive alignment. (Max negative camber up front.) With that set up and the wider front tires the handling is great. Limited understeer and it's nicely hooked up.

 

Toyo R888
Noisy on the street. Nice stick on the track when the air pressure is right.
They're pretty good in the wet too.

I've heard others like the Nitto NT01.

 

thank you for your help! Hope others can chime in with such insight, thank you

 

I am currently running 245/305x18 with RA1 but they are my last set.

I am thinking of running 255/315x18 next season. Probably with R888 or Falken RT615K.

HTH,

T.

 

thank you !

 

Just did 235 front and 295 back on OEM carrera III 18s. Toyo R 888.

Some whine on the street. Lower ride height- according to my el cheapo jack. But hard to tell otherwise.

Very sticky on the track. Dropped 5 seconds a lap at MSR Cresson compared to my PS2s!
It could probably take 1 cm more on the width front and back but the fit on this size looks perfect.
