Wheels are 18x9.5 work meister s1 2-piece, offset should be around +20, i had 265/40/18 michelin pilot sports all around n those were still fine and sat flushed. Also had 265/35/18 advan a048, kumho v70a and dunlop dz02g which all had no problems. The 275s that im looking at are Dunlop SP Sport series or Bridgestone Potenza series.

I'm running the same rims (Workmeister S1) in 18x10 +20 with 265 rubber and they j-u-s-t clear (had to flair the inner lips on the guards slightly). I guess the 275 on 18x9.5 would be around the same.

i have to be honest here. i can't see why you want 275 tyres in the first place? 265 is massive. and 255 is ample. especially on a 9.5inch rim a 275 will probably handle worse than a good 255 and the 275 will be heavier and more expensive.

no one can tell you for certain if it will fit or not. so many things will affect that. offset of your wheels? ride heigh of your car? castor setting? front camber? rear camber? height of bumptops? only way to find out is buy and try.

What he said! 275's would be craptacular on 9.5s.

    • I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body
    • Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".
    • Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.
    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card style AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had no flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
