wow... do you need to roll your fenders to get those on?!
Looks like they are too wide for our cars without some modification.

You can get 275's on a 8 or 8.5 (48 offset) wheel on a stock suspension with no problems or mods at all.
Bill - I will be getting my next set of 275's in September just in time for all the "big" events.

Yeah, with the way you were squirrelin' around down at Atlanta, 275's are not a bad idea.
| Vampyr | 05-16-2006 08:58 AM |
So... does this tire/wheel size affect the odometer reading? How close is the diameter to the stock wheels/tires?

Not that thats the reason...(No heat)..I corded a 710 in the Center of the tread....about 1/2in long...and could probably get away with running them for a event or 2..I went ahead and pulled the trigger on them now...since I had the money saved...:)..
[QUOTE=Vampyr]So... does this tire/wheel size affect the odometer reading? How close is the diameter to the stock wheels/tires?[/QUOTE]
no...the overall diameter is much the same....and since these are for race only...Speedo stuff doesn't matter...its the W I D T H man..:D...

Bill - How many runs did you get on your v710's before they corded?
As for the overall diameter when the tires are mounted on a 8 inch wide wheel they are a little taller than stock, but the speedo doesn't matter since they are only used on course anyway.

Well lets see...
I'd say about 75+
They were new just before the challenge last year...I bought your old victoracers...then sold those to get these used.....I just corded the one in ATL because of my aggressive :rolleyes: driving style :devil: and the stupid ROUGH as cobb Pavement up there...There were lots of 2 driver events as well...sometimes even 3 drivers...so I got my moneys worth out them...I will keep better track of my new ones...since I have a running log book now...

I am on 90 runs with my 275's v710's right now. The same ones from the Challenge last year as well. From the wear holes on them I think I can squeeze out about 110 runs. Mainly on ashpalt, but included 20 runs on the Ft. Myers concrete.

Depends on the transistion. Peak Gs on the 315s are a big advantage, but then again the extra width isn't. Of course, so far this year we've been running on tires built in mid-2004 with 3 road race cycles ;)

Well the good news is I don't need any spacers for my meats...so thats a plus.....
Alignment done...Slammed=2.9 degrees neg camber in front...with 2.1 degrees toe out....1.5 degrees neg in the rear...with .1 degree toe out.....VERY VERY VERY NICE.....
Street is a respectable .6 neg with 0 toe in front...the same 1.5 deg neg in the rear...
Sueeeeeeeeeeeeeet...cant wait till tomorrow...

Bill,
Is this for a local autox or something bigger? That's a lot of change to sort out with the alignment and tire change. It's likely gonna take a few runs to get dialed in. :)
