[nolan]

I'm thinking about buying some zr1 wheels and the tires are gonna be 275/40/17 fronts and 315/35/17rears, and one is 810.06 revs per mile and the other is 809.9 is this a problem?

Re: tire problem?

That should be an acceptable difference. Is that your Ty in the sig?

So that should not be a problem? Yes I have owned it about 6 months and just got it painted,with c4 wagon wheels

Re: tire problem?

do you think a difference of 808.81 to 813.17 will be a problem? i think i might be streching it a bit

Yes, big problem.

If I were you I would stay away from the 275 up front. It can pull you around in a sometimes scary way. Not worth it IMO. Run a 245 and you'll see its almost like driving a normal vehicle.

I've been running that combo for 11 years on my Sy and it works great. Hooks hard, excellent for auto-x, real good alignment solved any wander.

I've tried everything under the sun on my Typhoons and the 245 was the only thing that got it to go mostly away.

You are only looking at a difference of 0.02" in overall diameter. Two hundredths of an inch is more than an acceptable difference. Just a few psi difference can give you that much, not to mention wear, and all this is assuming tire manufacturers tolerances are that tight. :2cents:
