Front is no more than 5mm from the upper arm so can go in any further or higher (taller tyres etc)Rears could go another 10-20mm out if I get the guards rolled, could easily go 50-60mm inwards. Finding anything wider than what I have with a similar rolling diameter is the issue. Nitto make a 335/30r19 but it's 40mm or so up in diameter and fitting a taller tyre up front to match won't really be possible (needs to be done to keep the TC/ABS happy).

IE unless running a super sticky compound what width reduces the pressure per square inch to the point that a slightly smaller tyre would provide the same grip level? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only issue I'll have is that the axle moves across when the shocks bog down due to the pan hard bar. Moving inwards for wider rears as far as possible would be the best way to avoid this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
