That's an expensive set of nice wheels. Don't spoil it by putting stupidly narrow stretched tyres like some people do!

Something like 285 35 may do the job. If the tyres stick out too much make the guards bigger don't shrink the tyres!

I ran 275x35x19 on my R34 GTR (work d9r 19 x 10.5 +15), which is mildly lowered. I couldn't go full lock without scrubbing on the inner guard linings on both sides.

I went down to a 275x30x19 tyre and used a heat gun on my inner linings. No scrub whatsoever now.

275/35r19 there pretty big dont think id like to go bigger scrubbing as it is

I understand - but then why go 10.5 wide if your not going to put the appropriate tire on there.

The below is 10 wide with a 285 - see how the sidewall is square - surely that will give the car better turning and handling - please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

From what i have read 275 or 285 is the recommended width for a 10.5 inch rim. 275 on a 9 inch rim isn't recommended as its too wide.

275 on 9in wheels are within the LVTA guidelines but the proof of the pudding is in the photos - OPs tyres are clearly stretched and the above 285s on 10 in wheels look just right.

I've got the same wheels offset etc, previously I had 275/30 no scrubbing now I have 275/35 19's nitto nt05 scrub the inner and outer guard. Then again mine isn't ride height, I wouldn't go anything thicker then the 30 series unless u want to do some suspension and camber work. My front is at 3 degrees camber to prevent my guards ripping again.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
