Thanks n15m0. Looks like it'll be Pirelli PZeros in a 225/40R19 and 245/40R19 combination then.

If you car has traction control, front tyres will need to maintain the same diameter as the rear. Or the T/C may playup :blush:

I'm running 255/40/20 & 295/35/20 which are 712mm & 714mm in dia respectivly.

The tyres you have picked are 663mm & 679mm in dia which maybe enough to freak out the T/C.

I think it will be fine, since the stock V35 coupe 18s run 245/45 and 225/45 from factory and doesn't cause any problems with the TC or VDC.

Also, I am a bit confused by your sig. how did you measure Front Wheel KiloWatts in 2 Rear wheel drive cars?

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I had my front and rear wheels off on the weekend and the coupe 18s are the same size front and rear (18x8JJ +30) so I still don't know why they are stamped 'front' and 'rear'. I took some pics if anyone wants to see it.

The only thing I can think is the run a staggered tyre size and it might help prevent a dodgy mechanic getting them mixed up. But you think it would be easier to just check the tyres..

There seems to be some confusion around the stock OEM tyre size for our Coupe.

Can anyone clarify what the OEM tyre specs are for 17"? Currently mine are 235/45R17 all round.

Sonicii - my Coupe OEM 18's are both 8" too. I think the front / rear stamped on them is just so fitters know where to put them. If they can't see the tyre sizes I'm not sure how they'll see the front / rear cast into the rear of the wheel :no:

Marshan - I'm pretty sure the OEM 17's are 225/50 front & 235/50 rear - that's the sizes on the OEM 17" alloys I bought, still with Japanese tyres fitted.

same width all round shouldnt cause a problem at all. if anything, youll get improved response in corners - less understeer

OEM tyre pec should be on the tyre label on your drivers door B pillar just above the latch

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.

      It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

      South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.
