hey guys i know people are running radials on their AP2 wheels but I forget who is. I just wanted to make sure 275/40-17 will work even though its a 8.5" and wanted to see if spacers and studs are needed. Thanks

I had nitto 555r drag radials 245/45-17 should need anything bigger then this

I beg to differ lol. Anyone running 275s? Thanks

I went to an autoccross event where a CR had 275 on the rear and he said there is no issue and he runs it all the time.

Ok great thank you for the help. Got confirmation from another known member on here he runs them perfectly fine as well

A little bulge if anything will help you in the strait line, assuming that’s the most important thing to you since your shopping for DR's

Guys are running R compund tires in the 275/40R17 but they are normally a shorter tire. If I can help let me know.

well the MT ETs are always something I have considered in the past. Ran M&H radials on my 650hp Neon and they hooked pretty good but looking try something else. Seems like maybe the NT01 or the ET Streets are the two im deciding from.

So can we run a 275-40-17 drag radial on a stock 8.5 wide rim?

The Nittos run fairly narrow. So I'm not sure if you can fit a 275 on an S2000 but I say you could fit one on an 8.5" rim without much bulge.
