So as the title says I'm after rear tyre size recommendations. I would like to go as wide as possible on the rear rims/wheels.

What I have,

1. 1995 Mustang GT, export version.

2. Eibach sportline springs and shocks to be fitted, so will be 2 inches lower at the front, but importantly 1.8 inches lower at the rear.

3. I have fitted a set of DTM Atom all around, 18x10 rear wheels, with 20 offset.

Presently I have 265/30r18 on them. Lots of other things done to her, 3.55 and rebuilt diff, energy suspension bushes all round.

So I would love to fit 295 up to 315's and still keep the same rolling diameter or slightly larger.

So, what have you guys fitted with a similar setup?????

Cheers

Chris.

from my personal experience 315s fit no problem with the right wheels


TTOCS, cheers for the reply. I'm down in New Zealand, so I have to get this right first time, I will need to get the tyres in from the USA probably, as the sizes I'm looking for just dont get stocked here.

I fit 295’s with no issue. With as low as you’re going with a 315 the worst you’d have to do is roll the fender lip.

In the shop
There will be modifications to the inner fender lips and trunk side walls to fit 345 wide tires
