I've been looking into these same options.. I was considering a set of new forged wheels, but I want to keep the 19/20 wheel size.. Would the nt05r work on a 20x11? And just get a 1" spacer for the rears? Thanks! -Seburn

What tire are you running up front. I was thinking about a 305/30/19 nitto invo. Will these fit and are they a good match with the nt05r's?

Thanks man. i am going to do that too for now. Do they cover the rim or is the rim lip stick out a bit? I am going to hold off on the 18's for a bit. Ill try to pick some up used when i find the right deal. I heard from Marlon you made 672 with e85. Nice!!! I know it is cold out but do the nt05r hook at all in first and second. I image in first not so much. lol

pm me your number I'll text you pictures of the front wheels. 1st gear it spins if I'm aggressive with it but 2nd atleast on my old setup hooked perfect. I have only gotten to do a few short bursts in 1st on the new setup since on my way back from joshs shop there was a lot of traffic and cops. I'm gonna test it out this weekend more

As far as the 305s I'm not sure, I just went with the 275s since I like the NT05s and didn't want to chance any rubbing issues

If I buy replicas in 19X12 with the 345 Nittos, do I need to change the stock front tires? Also, does the absence of tire sensors create a problem? I'm new to this and know absolutely nothing about the tire sensors other than they tell you a tire pressure is low. Thanks.
