Darn - I might have to pass on the engine theme - nothing special in there except a lil bling from the LMS Z Tube......

It was just a guess on my part, who knows what it will be. Besides even if it was it doesn't mean you can't take a picture anyways.

I was actually thinking of 275/50/20
I think the 45 profiles would make the gap bigger no?

it might be a little bit, but check out fxlr8's setup with 275/45-20...it looks bangin'. smaller sidewall than the stock 265/50-20 and it looks very sporty.

Hey Brown - I already pulled the trigger on the 285/50/20 had them mounted today. They Look crazy meaty - I might have to tub the rear like an old skool muscle car.

Post up some new pics with your new tires if you can, i'd love to see the difference in size between the stocks and your new ones.
 
Will did you see the difference between your fx now and Humberto's?! I'm sure he noticed a HUGE difference and the look of a very aggressive fx from the rear.

Did you notice and difference today in ride and handling?

Looking good Will, but I'm still partial to 22's!:tongue::wink:
 
I got a chance to rip it around on the freeway today and it feels good. Zero road noise. Im happy with them.
 
Glad you like the setup.
pretty meaty sidewall. How'z it handling though on the twistys.
 
Well Socal got some much needed rain this weekend - and I took the FX out, and noticed that theres all kinds of dirt and water spots on the fender and door area - Im guessing that the 285's are too wide for the mud flaps to stop the water from splashing all over the fender and door area. :frown:
 
Do you have mud guards Will? Cause I don't notice that much debris from my 305's.
 
Yeah I got them - mud guards. Maybe cuz my car is black I can see it more????
 
Ok well its that time again.......I've got about 35% left on these....so Im gonna start shopping around for some new tires.

I didnt really dig the crazy side way on the Yok Prada Spec X.
Im thinking about the same tires but lower profile.....45 maybe?
285/45/20 or maybe 295/45/20?

the 295/40/20 says the diameter is 3.75% difference and thats too much.
The 285/40/20 says its a 4.8% difference. So I guess the 40 series is out of the question. It says i should stay within a 3% difference.


Any suggestions?
 
Wow, already need replacements?!?!? Didn't you get these tires with the wheels you have now.
 
Yeah..

You must drive allot then.. Not more that the Doc though.

How many mile to you have on them.. They look like 50K type of tires..
 
Will, I can get you a good deal on the new Toyo Proxes STs when avail
