Anyone know the heads up on these Et street radials...and availability??

I am running 12" rims with 335/30/18 ps2's....sticking out, no tubbing.

Think the Mt's will fit without issues??

Thanks

 

Freaking M/T...........i went with 17's because they didnt make an 18" D/R and now look what they did........DAMNIT.

 

dont get to excited.....your tires will be bald before they come out!
hehehehe

 

They will...I have BFG 345/30/18 drag radials on my 12in wide rims..

 

I looked online and summit says mid to late dec delivery?????

I ned to call a local dist...and maybe get on a list or something

Hopefully my car will be back up, running and broken in by then...

Traction will be totally non existent...I think..

 

what a minute....not so fast.....your assuming thatthey will....do u know the height?

 

according to mt...27.5" diameter, 13.89 sidewall width and 12.8 tread width...unless it is misinfo...

The site say that specs are estimated...Maybe I could just buy the CAD drawing

 

The OD will most likely work against you Bro...I'm sure your fitment is pretty close with your 18" PS2's...ask me how I know

 

ok so u agree w/me but how do u know? dont tell me..........no u gotta set???

 

My MPS 345/30/19's have a 27.4" OD and they occasionally rubbed even with Lingenfelter Mini-Tubs. Now with my flared rear quarters & 3/4" spacers all is cool. Offset is critical

 

sweet!!
who fenders and hows the quality

Thanks Bro...Quality & Fit is excellent, they are fiberglass...Cajundude sells em, I believe you know Jason

 

The MT's are 27.5" high, almost 2" taller than my 335's...

My wheels measure between 8 3/4 and 8 7/8" from inside edge of rim to middle where the wheel sits against the rotor?????

So how do I calculate offset???

12/2 =6.....8.875 - 6 = 2.875" or 73 mm ???? not a wheel expert here

Looks like losing 1" clearance would put the tire's outer edge right at the fender....(also car is lowered)

Help....

 

Scotty,

I assume those rims are true Z06's and if so, do your front tires rub at all? 275/30/18 in front?

Not trying to hijack here.

RJW, my car is also tubbed and the MPS 345's rubbed on the inside front edge where the frame goes at an angle. 345 is a huge tire. Especially when it grows...BTW also check top clearance as there is only so much especially on a lowered car.

 

Nemesis, can you fab my splash guards for me..I'm too busy cleaning car for Autorama.

 

Tires vary by Brand even if they say they are the same size. For example my 335 BFG R1s were diifferent then my Michelin Pilot MMXs and they were different then my Michelin PS, and have noticed that the Toyo's are different as well.

What has been the same is the the same CCW 18x11.5" (I measured 12" with Discount Tire's caliper) using 335/30 on the rears...on two different C5s. With the Z06 having rear brake ducts I had to remove them running the Michelin PS...however with the Toyo Proxes I was able to add them...there is like 1-2mm clearance when sitting on the ground...with the car on the lift they touch..as the geometry changes.

I have also found that it depends greatly on how much negative camber you run. I have kept the same camber setting in the rear..yet I can run my brake ducts with one tire and not the other. Running negative cambers moves the bottom of the tire outward but also moves the top of the tire inward...which means the top of the tire gets closer to the plastic wheel well. I run about .12-.15 negative camber in the rear. Which moves the top of the tire away from the wheel well more then stock, it is better for cornering having the wider tire with negative camber, and also still places more contact patch while driving on the street...which is helpful when you have mover power.

My thoughts are with running a 345/30 that you will certainly hit being taller and wider that any 335/30....I have had differences with different 335s but never 10mm worth. You might be able to adjust your camber to 0.0, but I would not go with positive camber on the rear to avoid rubbing over just running 335s with a touch of negative camber.

Let us know how it works out for you.

 

I am currently running 335/30 ps 2's on my house of wheels 12" and brake ducts are intact, car lowered and no rubbing?????

How the heck do I figure this bs out???????

Not about to dump $$$ and use them as planters?

 

rjw i wouldnt get to excited......it might be ALOT longer then u think before those monster meats are out. THANKS COOPER!
