SRT-10 10 spoke wheels up for grabs..........
Discussion
Chuck, I’m trying to get my head around what the effect would be and by how much, from a tire size calculator the fronts will be about 2mm smaller diameter overall with 275/35R18 tires as opposed to the 275/40R17. This seems to fall within range of tread depth wear anyway so would it really make much difference.
I agree that the rears will see about 23mm extra diameter which could be more worrying but I’m not too concerned about the effect on gearing as I already feel the 3:55 rear end I have is too low so going to a bigger diameter would help reduce that a bit. But would the extra 11.5 mm of height on the rear effect the geometry enough to really worry about it?
On a more commercial level, how much would a set of centre caps and decent looking lug nut/nut covers, or whatever I need to make the centres look good, set me back?
