I like it good job , though what are you going to do pull more to make them fit? Cuz 295s are huge the second widest ive ever seen on a 240

And whats goin on with that exhaust sorry had to point that out

[Hoffman5982]

that looks sick

[TJcars2]

Streched tires do look cool and all, and I love how they look but why??? Those tires look like they'll fit just fine with a little more pull. Keep the contact patch.

VERY f***ING NICE! finally someone who understands tire to rim relationship, glad you did away with monster-width rims with over-stretched tires...

Excellent idea on downsizing those tires. Aren't you running an SR20DE? You don't need that much rubber...

I'm confused. Car looks great as it is.

Eh... I think he should go to a non staggered setup and keep the large tire size. Maybe not 295 large but, still, it'll help in the handling department.

Whether he needs it is dependent upon what he's doing with the car.

Well, naturally. He knows what he plans for his own car. I just agreed with him...

[Dazzla]

It looks sick. I'd pull more and keep it as is

I'm just disagreeing.

[kouki munster]

Any idea as to what the offset on the saleen wheels is. It looks as if it is some where between a +25 and a +35 from how the wheels look on the car with the 295's on them.

[JDMZ32]

Nice! 295s FTW!

[numbnuts240]

those wheels look great on a zenki. i'd love to run a set of those but i really don't want to pull my quarters.

ha exhaust is 2.5inch straightly, no cats no resonators and just happened to cut off right there.

+22 offset all round.

I ditched the SR a while ago, just running the KA now.and i haven't completely decided on tire size.i think i may do a 265/35 rear and leave it a that. but thats when the time comes.

Proper tire fitment, sorry fan bois

[drewce]

wow those wheels actually look really sick! nice

[Philipio]

I still think my 245s all around look wide in person; I can't imagine 295. Very nice.

Lulz!may just go with the 265/35/18s rearim really liking the (with neg camber) 10 inch contact patch im running with the 295s. cant wait to take them up to the mountains and see what difference wider tires actually make

265s will provide me with a near 10 inch contact patch and up front will be at 9 inches.

Should Help my stopping power also,

stretch is nice, but over-rated

Going from 205 to 245 on a road course was SO night and day. I never lost grip. It'll be fun, and a lot more fun once you get some good tires.

Gold calipers FTW, rear wheels with tires look fine as some already said a little

pull is all it needs
