Need Answer For Gtr Tyres Size !

[GTR34-Vspec]

Hi guys, i'm thinking of fitting wider tyres at the rear than the front on my gtr (for better traction on take off and light steering purpose), for example: 245/35/18 (fr) and 285/35/18®. But what will happen to the electronics and mechanism systems ??? Any advise would be appriciated. Cheers

It's best if you can keep the diameter of the tyres the same. Otherwise one set of wheels will be rotating at a higher speed than the others, and the ATTESSA system will think you have wheelspin.

245/35/18 = 628.7 mm

285/35/18 = 656.7 mm

So your rear wheels will always be spinning approx 5% slower than the fronts.

See if you can get 285/30/18 = 628.2 mm. Then both sets of tyres will be the same diameter.

Hope that helps,

Gary.
