This may be old news to some, but when I came across it during my search for new tyres I was like Holy Mother of God.

Kumho Widest Tyres

World Car Fans - Kumho SEMA 08

Love how the second article say they have "semi run flat ability". That's because there's 1 cm between the rubber and the inside of the rim. You probably wouldn't notice if you had a flat lol.

Anyone know where to get these tyres, wheels to fit them and a wide-body kit for an R34 GTR? (Tips on fast ways of making the 30k required also welcome). Being a GTR I guess you'd need 4 of them rather than just on the rears.

sweet. won't have to order in 355 Pirelli P-Zero's in from the US anymore for the widebody kaki. what's the bet Kumho locally don't supply em anyways?

Tough, wonder if you can fit them on anything without tubbing it.

From the second article:

"The massively sized 385/15ZR22 ECSTA SPT KU31 tire accommodates supercars such as the Ferrari F430, Dodge Viper, and Corvette Z06."

Dunno whether this means they fit those without modification. The rear wheel arches on all three of these are pretty damn fat though.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
