Just because most people run that size doesn't make them right. The size I'm running maintains the proper rolling diameter for which the car was designed, now tell me again how I have the wrong size.

thats not the issue really. its the sidewall height that is incorrect. in order to truely be slammed you can not run a 40 fron and 35 sidewall tires in the widths discussed. they are not correct for a lowered car.

because your tires look like donuts. that is why they are incorrect. there is a reason everyone who has the same wheels size and offset as you look a lot better. because they have the proper tire for the drop. your tire size is correct if you intend on keeping the car oem height. not lowered.

Well I'm sorry,.... I didn't know when I posted I was going to be antagonized by the tire police. Would you like me to take down my photos, do they offend you delicate sensibilities?
Again, do the stock wheels look like donuts??? These are the same side wall hieght as stock. There are other cars lowered still running stock wheels, do you tell those people that they are running the wrong tire?
I track my car, I don't just roll around the streets avoiding pot holes.

if he likes the look, then who cares. the tire sizes he posted are just fine to stay within stock heights.
