Track tires on stock wheels 401

Dr.HiTcH · 09-11-2017, 11:21 AM

Hello there
I was planing to use the stock wheels 19 inch 401 wheels
Which are 8 front, 8.5 rear for track but to change the size of wheels to
245/35/19 front was 225/40/19 stock
245/35/19 rear was 255/35/19 stock

Im running ps2 with and want to get benefit out of the new tire size for the track because many good wheels are available like mechillan cup 2 ,4s and trophio R
Also 235/35/19 is available in R888

Did someone try this sizes before?
Will this affect the hight a lot ?
What is the feeling on the track with those sizes?

Thanks

There's no PS4 in your size, but Michelin makes the Cup 2 in 245/35/19. It's an R compound tire and well suited for the track.

Another equally good option is the RE71R. They only come in 235/35/19, but you may want to look at it, since it's also an R and cheaper than the Cup 2 (more track time!).
