295 vs 305 rear tire comparison

aliusa · 08-06-2020, 02:01 AM

Anyone has pics available to show how the car looks from behind in 295 and 305 tires?

I might be replacing the stock rears (295) at the end of the year so I'd like to see how 305 setup looks in comparison.

TIA!

fyi - MPSS/MP4S is wider than other tires in the same spec

Honestly, regardless of how it looks it’s just a better option all together. It looks good. Ok?! Hahaha jk. Seriously though, do it because these cars need wider tires in the rear and you won’t regret it.

305's ps4s the way to go for quicker starts, they'll always beat the 295 shod cars and no tyre bulge

Put on 5mm spacers with longer lugs also and it'll look a million dollars...guaranteed!

This is exactly what I did. A lot better traction and looks great.
