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.

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
