harrison Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I'm looking into running some works wheels on my fairlady with zg flares. 15x9 -16 F 15x10 -28 R The trouble I am having is finding a correct tire size. I want a flush to semi-flush fit with the flares without stretching a tire too much. Is anyone running a similar set up? What size tires are you using and what brand? Also, does anyone have a big brake kit and running 15s? Thanks, Harrison Quote Link to comment
jser12 Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 this guy went 215 on an 8j. http://www.speedhunters.com/2011/02/guest_blog_zach_zupancic_gt_gt_volvo_powered_240z_on_a_budget/ so I would say maybe a 225. BFgoodrich has this to offer http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&partnum=25R5GFTADR&KEYWORD=tires.jsp_BFGoodrich_g-Force_T%2FA_Drag_Radial_Tire&cagpspn=pla&code=yes&CAWELAID=530007250000343773&tireModel=g-Force+T%2FA+Drag+Radial&GCID=C13674x012-tire or maybe a little wider in a 235. there are plenty in 235/50515s available online Quote Link to comment

cjack300zx Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 The only 235/50/15 tire available is toyo proxes. You don't have to many choices with 15 inch wheels. Most guys are running 225/50 and 205/50 tires Quote Link to comment
harrison Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yeah... that's what I figured. I really wanted to run a tire that I wouldn't have to stretch a whole lot and that I can drive on the street. I was planning on running wilwood 6pot front brakes from Arizona z car, but I need at least a 13.75" inner diameter to clear the wheels. http://www.arizonazcar.com/brake.html Work Meister CR01s.
