Default GS-D3 19s

Hey there all.

Well, I have read lots of good stuff about the D3s on here. I am thinking of getting 19s all around.

Can someone tell me what size I should get (widest without rubbing of course!) and what width wheels I will need?

Thanks

JP

There are very few 19" Goodyear D3 tire sizes available. If you have a C5 coupe or convert, there is a 285/35/19 for the rear, and a 245/35/19 for the front (or use a 275/30/19 front).

If you want the widest tire combo, go with 305/30/19 & 265/30/19 (these sizes are not available in the D3's)

For wheels, use a 19x9.5 54-59mm offset front & 19x11 62-65mm offset rear. These wheel specs will keep the tires from sticking out or rubbing.
