[R.3.2.G.T.R]

what width rims is needed for this size?

[XKLABA]

10.5-11, not the best idea for a 32 mate

Would grip awesome though, mine has the Z221s in 265/35/18 to give you an idea from your ride at SMSP

If my splash guards allowed for this i'd snap it up haha

damn didnt realilse u were running z22, car was on rails thru the corners, i was being ambitious with the size on offer :-)

[XKLABA]

Yeah those Z221s are awesome and the A050s are suppose to be even better, these should fit ok under a 33-34 GTR with the right offset wheel, but I wouldn't like to put them on the front of an unmodified 32 GTR

Nesh, 265/35/18s would be plenty enough for your car

I see you got down to a 1.07.39, nice

I'm running 285/35 on my 18x10.5+18 and i struggled to full lock to the left as the driver side tyre was rubbing the splash guard and made a horrible noise when i full locked, so DIY'd and cut a small square where it was rubbing, just putting it out there incase there were people out there with same or similar specs to my wheels who wanted to purchase this so they're aware of a potential issue =]

[sycorb]

gentlemen i had them on my r32 gtr on 18x10.5 +15 with 2deg camber on front with rolled guards

wongy you will never need full lock on the race track full lock will only be used when reversing or parking

i have done a 60.9 around wakefeild park wuth the AO50's i personally prefer the z221's but both are awesome

but cant use z221's for wtac

[Wongy]

yea, i understand that, but incase someone has a street/track car like me, lol, i don't track mine all the time, but when i don't, i enjoy a drive here and there and it requires me to full lock when parking, and it started making noises abit before full lock, so i'd imagine 295 to start making noise much earlier than full lock, just a warning thats all

[XKLABA]

But Nathan you have 285/35 where these are 295/30 so the rolling diameter would be less meaning these might fit your 34 without rubbing, just a thought

[sycorb]

these tyres are illegal for the street

these are tyres for the track work only

[XKLABA]

I can't comment on the A050s but the Z221s are street legal, they have the DOT rating and wear indicators

That is the Z222 RS3 tyre, the Z221 says Competition use only...

[XKLABA]

Mine say "not recommended for street use" but still have the DOT approval

[34GeeTeeTee]

Mine say "not recommended for street use" but still have the DOT approval

Either way they are not a tyre that you would want to use on the street! They are the best tyre i have driven on in terms of grip, with the 295/30 size they would offer amazing grip!

Possible offer coming soon
