ok i decided im going to get some new rims for my r33 gtr and just want toi check if this tyre size will be ok.

planning on putting 265/35/18 federal 595rsr on a 18x10.5+15 rim.

will these be ok or will they be too stretched?

any chance you can go have a look???

federal website says up to 10" rim but surely half inch stretch is ok?

would realy like to know today so i can put the order in n get them early next week

I've got RSR's 265, on a 10.5 right now.

It's fine. Doesn't looked stretched at all. Doesn't sit as flush as my 285 AD08s, but it's not 'stance' spec and looks good.

Although that said, the RSRs are quite average compared to AD08s I had previously.

yeh i went ahead n ordered the 265 tyres.

was just a little concerned at the begining coz atm i have 275/30 on a 19x10.5+17 rim and have now just bought some 18x10.5+15 rims and the federal website said that the 265/35 595 rsr was suitable for 9-10" rims.

but either way ive got it all on order n they should arrive by the end of next week so ill have to post up a pic if i get them all fitted by the weekend

How much were the 265s?

Price difference for 285s?

I've got 265 a050s on a 10.5" and I reckon it is quite stretched. Especially on the inside for some strange reason. It hits rim when you lay it down instead of tyre.

yeh thats what i thought when i seen them n just wanted to make sure they would fit the 10.5" rim

hit up 555 motorsport for a price, they have huge stock of the 595 rsr from what the guy told me

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
