^ holy **** man thats going to look nice...
But be prepared to be pulling on your rear fenders...
what suspension mods do you have?
and I say go with a 10mm spacer in your case.... thats what I run
and the pirelli's run larger then most tires JTLYK

thats what I thought...the tread design looked like them. I have the rears rolled as I think that should be sufficient enough for the michelins. The PS2 265's will look the same as the star specs or re10r 255's mounted on a 9.5" rim.

BTW: are you still interested in my Team Dynamics?

Right now I am going to be doing all my suspension stuff... so at the moment, no.
But thanks for remembering.
From those i have talked to they said that Michelin pilot sports run large, and I am pretty sure they are larger then Bridgestone REO1s (which are a undersized tire to begin with).
Depending on suspension it could be necessary to alter the bumper bolt(move it farther back) so it doesnt dig your tires under compression.

I was using Jonathan's post as a reference for the tires and the 265's look just like emagdnim8's 255's width wise on a 9.5" rim. I shouldn't need to do any rolling of the fronts (liners are gone) and the rears I may have to do some pulling...we'll see. Here's Jonathan's Advan thread (and shameless plug) as he's trying to sell the wheels.

More pictures please!

Anyway, do I have to do some chamber modification if I am installing 17" or 18"x9.5?
