i ran 5mm w 305/25. Start with a 5mm and see how much more room you will have.

He made the right choice going 295/30 vs going 305/25 since he had Swift springs which is only a slight drop so 295/30 filled the gap nicely. Now add a 5mm spacer and see how much more you will love it.

So with Springs in general you would go with a 295/30 instead of a 305/25 or is it just the fact that those spring dont give much of a drop that you would go with that tire?

Well there are 305/30/20 also available but they not cheap lol. But yes generally w a slight drop always stay with 30.

Dagon68 was actually wanting my exact set up and as much of a sale I would like to make I didn't because a 305/25 on swift springs would have looked odd. Now if he had been on coils we could have made the necessary adjustments to make it perfect.

We were looking to mainly fill I'n the gaps on his specific drop so 255/35 and 295/30 Toyo T1Rs w swift springs was best.

Glad you posted this combo Dagon this is the first 295 w +45 and Swift springs yet and this is what I like to see is a variety of different set ups. Now we have an idea of how to make it even more flush so by looking at pics I would say go for 10MM spacers and go +35 but try a 5MM first to see where it puts you at. I garuantee you will have plenty of room.

With concaves go +20 +25 235-35 and 265-30............ Wide tires look great but the make the CV series look not as concaved. That's just my take on it. Or 245-30 in front. No spacers, it looks wider from the back.

Yes I went with VossenG37s thinking instead of stretched/deep concave. I do realize the concave is less dramatic but on the plus side, it matchs the fronts better. The fronts dont have any concave which looks odd to me.

yeah,I kinda looked into those tires and was having second thoughts.If there is that much of a price difference between the 2 sizes and they still look good I would have no problem running them.
