Hi,

Sorry to make a new post however i need to make a quick decision.. i cant find the answer i need.

I originally wanted to purchase 235/40 and 265/35 however they arent in stock and i cant wait 3 months for a set of advan fronts.

Has anyone run this titled set up before? - Any issues with it?

Reason i ask is because the common increments are
215 and 245
225 and 255..

They will be fitted to the 8.5 and 9.5 wheels and offsets arent an issue for either.

Thanks!
_Derrick

Less than 1% diameter difference between them. That should not be a problem at all.

I bought 2 used 265/35/18 Run flats to replace on the rear when I sell the car since I learned to drifted on the original Run flats. I was wondering the same as well. I want to use the stock wheels and I have the staggered setup. I was going to take a wheel and tire down to the tire shop and have it mounted with no balance or anything just to see if it would fit.
