And you can run the 275 R888 on it no problem. I have run it on my car. Also a 8.5 +30 will 'look' better than a +40 as the face won't be so flat.275 on my 9.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vxr50t Member 134 Member For: 11y 7m 14d Posted 10/05/15 10:09 PM Share Posted 10/05/15 10:09 PM Depends on the brand of tyre but I rolled my guards as a precaution. Im still running fk453 rear which are more like a 295 and it scrubs slightly when cornering hard with ppl in the back but is fine most of the time. This is on standard height though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that most people don't want to pay for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind I'm set on running 275 R888s on the rear, have a lot of power I need to get down.I'm all for suggestions of other wheels if anyone has them?I've looked at Varrstoens, Rays, Lensos (could go D1R but I had them last time), not too keen on the RPF1 enkei. I like the look of rims like the TE37s and D1Rs etc, 5/6spoke with some dish is always nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
