Trying to reuse my nearly new 295s on a set of Carrera Sport wheels (11.5 inch rears). I know 305 is recommended but have done some polling and gotten feedback from Wheel Enhancement that it should fit fine (and that MPSS tires run a bit wider than other manufacturers).

So I just want to see if it might look weird. If you have a pic of a 295 on an 11.5in wheel, I would love to see it!

Thanks!

 

to narrow for the wheel

 

Wait one week more and you'll see them

 

It'll be a bit of a stretch, but I'm sure it will be fine. You may get the stetch and poke look, but there's nothing wrong with that. Give it a shot!

 

Nothing wrong at all with the stretch and poke look as long as its lowered with no wheel
gap.

 

Meanwhile...

Thanks Ale. That thread on Rennlist was started by me so I saw those pics of the grey C2S already - 295s look perfectly fine!

 

Next Saturday I'll fit these on mine (this Saturday the "tire specialist" was too busy because of people asking to fit winter tires) and I want to reuse my Pzero Rosso 295 (now on sportdesign rims).



PS in the pic rims are fit with some semi-slick michelin sport cup.

 

Those are sitting on 295s right now? I'm getting the same exact wheels. Love the Carrera Sports!

 

Sorry just reread the post. Good luck with it and can't wait to see pics. I think I'm going to pull the trigger on buying a set of Carrera Sports then. I feel encourage by those pics from the other thread, and your endeavours as well! :-)

 

Sorry... The pilot cup are 305, right now.
Anyhow I am pretty sure it will be ok!
In Italy 305 was not "allowed" up to 2008 (weird mot politics...) so carrera sport was coming with 295. It must (fingers crossed) fit

 

I have 305 on my 12" rim, so 295 will be just fine on 11.5".

 

Not to hijack the thread, but will a 305/30/19 fit on my 11x19 rim? Car is lowered....will it rub?

 

A few (awful) pics (295/30/19 on 11.5J).
Anyhow I can confirm that the wheel is not stretched at all.
