yeah that's what I'll be getting paired with some 275/30/19 rears 

[admS15]

just looked through the ad, those ones are 2013 production. Then they have 2014 for $20 more.

So you were running about the same power as my car which would have 0% traction loss with 8kg rears and less suspension work...

 

Yep, but your power came in way later. I have 4KG rears with helper springs, a Nismo 1.5way diff, running -1deg camber and AD08R's which were up to temp and running 30psi hot.

Not saying it's the best setup in the world, but it's not like it's a slammed 15KG rear springed 2 way on stretched 195 nankangs that cost $4 each

[UNR33L]

Yeh the other thing that I gotta keep in mind is the falcons are sensitive to diameter, like if the fronts have 650mm diameter and the rears have say 600mm (an example) traction control light just goes nuts thinking its spinning all the time, which is annoying because the 265/30 is cheaper than the 275/30s but the diameter is slightly smaller and don't want to have those annoying ass problems.

So I stick to tyre sizes I know look good and work

True, I mean I just copied pasted the emails but yeah. Finding sticky tyres in 19s with the right sized sidewalls, a lot of makes just make them big sidewalls which I don't really want (like a 245 / 40 as oppose to a 245 / 35) Invos / RS3 / NT05s / AD08s much harder to find them in the sizes I want, and if I do sometimes the prices are just stupidly high compared to the 'thick side wall' of the same tyre. Anyway seems st george are probably my best bet

Go with the more common one. remember sidewall is a % of the width too, not a direct measurement

Lack of PT from the airport is balls
