Re: [T3] tires...darksiders, come out and playay...


I am leaning towards joining the darkside....
I am going to lower my fasty, and wondered what the best tire size is
for this? I don't want to slam the tires into the wheel wells too much

Is this low enough and what you are looking for?

Mine's lowered just one notch, 4.5" rims with 165's on them.  Personally I
prefer 5.5" rims with 195/60's on them but I had these so....  If you are
any sort of agressive driver I would shy away from the 135-155's as you get
smaller and smaller a contact patch for both braking and cornering, plus (on
a personal note) I hate the little bitty tire look, mine are on the small
side of where my preferences lie.

In answer to your original question, my setup right now never bottoms out,
rubs, etc....
