You can get more traction with a 255 and proper alignment and toe settings then you can with a 275 with factory settings.
You are reading it the way you want to interpret what he said, not what he actually meant. He said, "I run 18x9.5 with 275's and they fit perfect, with no aggressive front camber, no shaving, nothing . . . "

What he was trying to say is that he runs appropriate camber for his setup, but not STUPID camber just to get the wheels to fit. STUPID camber would be defined as the truck in the last picture posted above. . .

I've always wondered how does running a stretched tire setup effect handling? I see alot of drifters running it in the rear, is that to make the rear rotate faster/easier, make it more "driftable"?

Also this is a bit but , Riley, have you ever considered doing some wheel work with subies? I dont know if you've ever been on the subie forums but they need some serious help getting off 7.5in wide rotas

Thanks man, I will probably end up getting the Emotions again as another temp wheel.

TRB-02s and CyberEVO are two different vehicle

one is full carbon tube chassis and other is just like ours..

i dunno maybe they can use 295s but i guess we will have to ask them why they choose to use 265s instead of larger size..

hey douche-um-bagger why do you even post? are you trying to get a post count up?


keep trying to put the oval block in the circle hole...


I like wheel protection, so i would never stretch and leave my lip open for attack..

Also we are talking about WORK wheels here... Not HRE iForged or certian volks...

maybe you should invest in some curb feelers
I have a lip protector style tire and it didn't do shit for me...and I barely tapped the curb

The wheels look friggin awsome, one of the best wheels I have ever seen on an evo. I wish I could afford them.

very nice wheels. dont seem to find many "deep dish" wheels on evos. they look amazing. I like them as much as I like Volks on an evo.. brilliant!

I wish Lancers had the room in the fender well to get creative. the 4 lug doesnt help much though. Stretched tires ftw! I love the look.

Ive probably tracked more times in one month, than you in a lifetime
I run two different alignments, one for track, one for street.
Makes sense, huh, and my tire wear loves it
Setup done by RobiSpec.......
