jcr557 · 05-05-2008, 10:22 PM

will they still keep me in HS? wheres the best place to get them at?

get 'em. i was pleased with these for taking turns but not so much for drag, another thing to consider is that the tire won't last you that long

go to edgeracing.com they're only $103 a tire for 225/45 17 or find a place that will price match edge racing. like beans said they dont last long. only 200 tread rating. one of the things holding me back from picking up a set.

Which Falkens you going for? I went with the RT615.
225/40/18.... Width will depend on the width of ur rims.

Please keep in mind if you want to stay in H-Stock your wheels have to be identical in dimension to your stock wheels or factory optional (so no dealer optional,meaning HFP's don't count, basically just the ones that came on the car). The only thing that can change is their offset can be +/- .25"

What is the width of your stock rims?

If money is an issue the RT615's will suit you well. However if you are running in a stock class and money is not an issue you may want to get some R-comps, or at least RE01R's.

jcr557 · 05-06-2008, 11:40 AM

im looking at the RT615 also. but getting 18's wont let me stay in H-stock so im getting 16's. with the 225's, do you have any rubbing against the fenders?

the width is 6.5" for the stock ex 16" wheels. im willing to spend up to $400 for tires.

**Gonzo** · 05-06-2008, 12:36 PM

AFAIK, 225 tires on 6.5" wide wheels is implausible...

jcr557 · 05-06-2008, 01:54 PM

i never said i was getting them, i was just asking him.

I just ordered the tires this past weekend and have not yet install the rims yet. The width of the rims are 7.5 which is just wide enough for 225's.
