NZBen Member 50 Member For: 10y 6m 23d Gender: Male Location: Auckland Posted 30/11/14 07:18 AM Share Posted 30/11/14 07:18 AM I am thinking about increasing my wall thickness from 40 to 45. At the moment I need new rears, so was thinking about changing them to 45, then when my fronts are gone I would change them too. My question is... will running different profiles have issues with the dsc abs etc? Any suggestions or tyres that really hook up and arent too bad in the wet?

I figure the 45 might give a better ride, slightly better gearing etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

08G6ET New Member 16 Member For: 10y 6m 18d Gender: Male Posted 05/12/14 04:53 PM Share Posted 05/12/14 04:53 PM I'm currently running 245/35R19 on the front and 245/40R19 on the rear of my G6ET. Completely stock, bar K&N air filter. I did get the tyre profile updated on the car via FORD IDS software as the my speedo was showing 80km/hr and actual road speed was 83km/hr. It's been like this for almost 6 months now. The speedo reads from the rear right wheel I think. No issues with ABS or traction control so far.
