Oh yea I like this entire process and I’m learning so much and he’s very knowledgeable.

 

Well the car hit 25psi with my last file I got from tuner and she was screaming haha runs great

 

A little clip right after what might be my last log for this tune, car feels great!!


Just added these , unfortunately not titanium

Yup there’s a car seat in there lol love this thing

 

Well, 6 seconds of ride-a-long just isnt enough time for me (haha)

Excellent project w/excellent results

 

Yea I need to get the ol go pro out and get a better angle of it , plus I wanna hear it from the outside like a drive by haha. Definitely not a cinematographer haha but I’ll get something

 

Ok so I have a set of Enkei rpf1 17x9.5 +38 and I’m searching for summer tires and sizes, I wanted the Michelin pilot super sport 4s but now the size is the question, I read the 255 is best for a 9.5 wheel and I know 245 will fit but will it be stretched out too much after you throw air in it?Those tires don’t come in 255/40r17 only in 18”. Fitting tires and wheels makes no sense to me lol thanks

 

This is my 2nd set of Federal 595 EVO's. You will certainly like the $$$ vs Mich. They have a nice stiff side wall & have worked very well, for me, on the street. They are summers & have a wear spec of 240. Just note: They run a size wide. These are 265/40/17's but really measure 275.

 

Those are sick, what specs are those?

 

Those are my street wheels. ROTA P45R 17x9.5 +30 (no front spacer needed)

 

I like them , I just don’t know crap about sizing tires to rims and benefits of each. I was going to get a 255/40 for the 9.5 but I changed tires I wanted and they don’t offer that. I’ve had the Enkei sitting in the garage for a minute.

 

The tire Gurus ranges for the 9.5" wide wheel are:

• 245min to 275max

Your thoughts on a 255/40 would be just fine & you would likely get away from doing a rear fender work due to the +38 offset

 

Right on I just need to find a second choice tire. Decisions decisions

 

I have Hankook R-S4 in 255/40R17 on those exact wheels. Price is good, grip is decent but not up to the latest 200TW tires, wear rate is great relative to the grip, and they handle heat well.

 

Nice , I’m gonna find a few types and just pick one lol I can’t wait to get these stock wheels off , even tho nothing wrong with stock but we all have the mod bug haha

 

I think I’m gonna try these tires out , they don’t have them 255/40 I believe tho. I’m not really wanting to spend a grand on the Michelin’s , maybe once I find the “ perfect” tire and size I’d spend more but I want new rotors and pads too lol
