Getting SSR GT3's in Satin.....either 9 or 9.5 in front and 10.5 in rear, what's the best tire setup that won't cause any fitment issues. I have been told BF Goodrich or Yokohama 295's in rear and either 265 or 275 in front?
I have American Racing 17X9 up front, and 17X11 in the rear. If your rims are going to be 17 BF Goodrich and pretty much everyone else no longer makes a 295. They stopped making it because more and more people are buying that tire in a 18, 19, or 20 inch rim instead. I have 285/45/17 on the rear of mine and only 245/45/17 up front, but I am probably going wider up front next time, and possibly a 310/35/17 on the rear. I did have to remove the quadra shocks from the rear tires and added a panard rod kit and new upper and lower control arms to accomodate the new tires. I don't think the control arms were necessary, but I like a car that handles.
