tire fitment charts

pandrade · 04-07-2013, 06:03 PM

im thinking that a chart whith factory tire/rim combo would be good to have in the FAQ's. for example there are only tire sizes that would work but for a newer guy maybe a proven chart that states proven combos would answer questions better. we can make a list maybe some one tried lets say an 05 z06 combo and found they work perfectly and don't rub(just an example) we can put that on a chart in the FAQ's as to make newer mem's not ask the redundant questions.

I can understand wheel offset req and proper tire fitment but it would be nice for a quick reference chart to be avaliable

If you feel up to putting together and maintaining a comprehensive compatibility list than go for it. I'll be happy to add it to the existing FAQ. Be forewarned though that it's a tougher project than you think. Other factors exist which may cause fitment issues for one person where they didn't for others and a lot of people won't know if they meet all the criteria: Brand and model of shocks, Brand and model of springs, Rolled fenders, Alignment settings, Wheel undercovers present or absent, condition of suspension bushings, coil overs?, non-stock brakes?...... and on and on... Also, for some reason this forum software doesn't parse large, HTML tables well so you probably need to maintain it on another site and link to it or create a PDF you can revise and replace periodically.
