Anyone running 255 tyres on a 10J wheel?

[Skyliner33]

As the thread title says, wondering if anyone is running 255 tyres on their 10J wheel?

How stretched is it? Had any problems?

Photos would be great.

TIA

I've got them on mine. They give a bit of stretch. This is the best pic I have showing it!

I`ve just got a set of 10J rims and was wondering what size you are running on the rears ? Also what offset are yours and did you have to fit spacers ? Mine are all 10J with a 38 offset. I`m trying to work out what size tyres will fit without rubbing.

Front or rear and how low are you ?

Front or rear and how low are you ?

I’m on stance plus coilovers sitting pretty low atm so can increase height.

You fitted 10x20 on the front or rear ?? Definitely quite low......tyre size will depend on if you want a load rating

I’ve not fitted them yet. Picture is how it looks now on 18’s. Just wondering what size tyres. New rims are all 10j not staggered. I’m thinking 255 on the front maximum. Just wanted to avoid rubbing.

These were 255.35.20 et42 and i had zero rubbing at ride height and aired out with no issues so i wouldn't go any bigger with tyres......you will get quite a good stretch with a bit of rim poke.

This was on Solow



And aired out

Thanks for the advice and pictures. I think mine are et38 though not 42.

I have 10” all round on 20” AXE’s. I’m running 255/35’s on the front and 275/35’s on the rear. Mine are also 38ET. But the fronts I took and got machined to reduce the ET. The’ve had 6mm removed making the ET 44. It’s got to be a bump on hard cornering for it to catch. Normally driving is no problem and I’m running pretty low.

In the new year I’m going to get them refurbed. Can’t decide on gloss black or bronze again. I’m back on my steelies for the winter.

Looks good. My fronts are about the same on 255/35’s. Any more pics ?

I eventually went with 255/40 x 20 and had to raise the suspension about 20mm.
