Default Work VS-XX tire fitment

Hi All,

i have finally rebuilt my VS-XX with new lips courtesy of VRWheels and a fresh powdercoat.

new specs are 17x8.5 +41 front, 17x9.5 +41 rear.

I have flat rolled lips front and rear currently, what would be my best tire size choice for minimal to no further arch work ?

i was thinking standard AP2 sizes ? 215/45/17 upfront and 245/40/17 rear ?



thanks !!!

Standard Ap2 sizes would be the best place to start. That way you have a little extra room to play with. You'll still need an alignment and more camber to run these but the slightly narrower tires will help minimize that.

Id aim for a 235/40 up front and 255/40 rear preferably if it were me. Or at least 225/45 up front. Stock size tires on these rims will look super stretched, especially up front. With decent camber in the -2.5 all around you shouldn't have to settle for stock size tires.
