For you guys that are running 245/35R20's doesn't this mess with the traction control,abs and most importantly sport mode ????
(3.5% overall larger diameter than stock)

it doesnt on mine...i have no problems stopping, the rubber grabs the road like crazy when it is wet, and i only use "sport mode" on the highway when i want to really get somewhere

 

[BIGGBOSS]

so you didnt notice a difference in sport mode because i keep mine on all the time and thinking of getting this tire size

 

[txbest1980]

i can notice the difference when i turn it on...but i can't tell the difference from the stock 17s to the 20s in "sport mode"

by any chance, have you lowered your car yet or put any sway bars on it? if not, this will increase your handling as well

mine run great...no complaints. gonna put in v sways as soon as i find a cheap set.

 

[txbest1980]

what is cheap to you? i may have found a set...PM me and i will let you know what i have come up with

 

[BIGGBOSS]

i thought alot about lowering but decided just to go with the 35 series tire to fill the wheel well gab a bit rather than risking wheel rub.

 

[txbest1980]

what is the offset of your rims?

 

[BIGGBOSS]

havent bought rims yet but prob gonna go with +38 offset

 

[txbest1980]

+38 or higher then you shouldnt have any problems with wheel rub...you are looking at 20x8.5?

 

[BIGGBOSS]

yes 20x8.5

 

[txbest1980]

you will have absolutely no problems...whether you lower it or not...but if you do plan on lowering it in the future sometime, i would go with a +40 and up offset just for good measure

i have 20x8.5 with a +38 offset and i get no rubbing at all

 

[BIGGBOSS]

1.2" pro kit???? what do you have for rear shocks(fe2,fe3,fe4)?

 

[txbest1980]

i havent lowered mine just yet, still debating that...my car has the fe3s though and i have got some fe4s just laying around

if i do lower it, i would go with the eibach kit and the fe4s...but i am not interested in that for now

 

[BIGGBOSS]

ya i agree your ride looks good without the drop.

thanks for the comp
