I went with 205 tires all the way round, I think its a 205/40/17 on the rear and on the front, I hear 15" wheels handle slightly better than 17's, but I wanted to give a big mean presence :-)

Because of weight I choose 15" wheels, with 195/55/15 tyres.
(Ford Focus wheel size)
They just fit..

So you must mention this at RTR! I also had to modify the frame to make room for the exhaust. And, I had to extend the horizontal exhaust pipe after the EXUP valve, otherwise it would not fit through the swingarm. You will also have to purchase a longer drivechain. Approx. 124 links in stead of 116. Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using ProBoards |
