I would highly recommend Powell mounts instead. I have a lot of ZZP stuff on my car but after having them And now having Powell the last 2 years, you will be happier with powells.

Yeah the powells seem nice but I'm kinda ballin on a budget here lol $226 shipped for everything and zzp has been successful with their cars and they run good times so I figured it would work.

whyd you switch to 235? Im trying to decide if I want 235/40 or 245/40 on my sedan. Ill be lowered on SSC springs. my current 225/40 aren't much traction and they aren't the smoothest ride.

It also won't handle quite as good.check the tread width specs on the tires you are looking at. If they are over 1" wider than your rims, you won't be able to utilize the full width.

I'll bump what 63 said here. Look at the tread witdth in inches and compare to our 7.5" wheel to see whats gonna get the best use of the tread.

Depends on the brand tire. No rub issue. I wish I wouldve bought 235 for my nt05. Depends though. If youre going for performance go by the specs 63 nova SS gave me, if you're going for looks go with 245
