Those have some pretty decent sidewall. How do they hook?

Momo Ferrera 19x10 et25 66.56cb 5x112.
M/T ET Street S/S 285/35/19

Use a standard flush kit as OEM wheels are already ET20.

Rear is tight but it fits, there is a lip on the barrel close to the face that is extremely close to the caliper without a 12mm spacer. With one there is good clearance all around the barrel but I would watch wheel weight placement.

They do "fit" up front however you have maybe 20 thou between the ends of the caliper and the barrel of the wheel. 15MM spacer required.

And these aren't my final setup, just a stopgap until somebody comes out with a smaller rear brake setup so I can run a 17 inch beadlock and a slick not a radial. Wanted to get into RMRW and I'm legal now.

The nt555rII's come in a variety of sizes that would work.

The nitros are definitely more streetable than the Mickeys but at the strip they don't really compare.

This is good info. Do plan on driving on them to the strip or do a tire change there?

For local test and tunes yes but on RMRW I will carry them on the roof track to track and across the country.

Well geeze, thanks for shitting on my purchase . blahahahaha

I'm assuming you are RWD, if so those work just fine for you.

With AWD, I need to ensure the height of the rears is within 1% of my fronts so I don't trash my driveline. Needed a tire that was about 26.8in tall to be close enough to the front. The Nitto's meet that need.

Specs below:
MT
Nittos
PZeros

I see, wasn't trying to shit on you just didn't know you were AWD. Since you are you're going to want them on all 4 corners. Having said that the AWDs already cut a what 1.6 60 on an unprepared surface?

Haha, all good brother

So I've had some decent slippage at Bandimere last season with the P0's so I thought giving these a shot to get a bit more traction from the dig. I have cut some higher 1.6xx 60' but I am hopeful I can get as low as possible to break into the 10's ET.
