michaelcs7 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Hey all, I have some 18 inch rota grids on my 05 leggy gt. Currently have some 215/40 yokohomas but the ride feels a little stiff. Was wondering what I should set the tire pressure to, door placard says 34/32 but I like it when its closer to 35 / 34 . also any recommendations for my next set of tires? I pulled this from the stickied posts 215/40/18 (uncommon tire size, close to OEM overall tire diameter, good for daily driving) 225/40/18 (typical sizing, most popular size, GREAT for daily driving) 235/40/18 (very large, but great for pot-hole city driving, may need fender rolling) I use the car a lot for long commutes on the 101 freeway where there are some bad parts on the freeway. Was a little surprised about uncommon tire size. Would the 235s be too big or just right for my needs? =) Thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Try a little less pressure. 225/40 should be ok for a DD. The Spec has 225/45-18, next time I'm thinking ot going with a 235/40. Though the 225/45-18 sidewall looks ok, yet the 225/45-18 DWS I have on other wheels look a little tall. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs.

michaelcs7 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 You can fit 225 / 45 / 18 on a legacy? I didnt even realize that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 225-40-18 all day long. Unless you are running 8" wide Grids? Then you can step up to the 235 realm to take advantage of the wider footprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
