Help with TOYO RA1 tires for 996 C2
I have a 996 C2 with RUF wheels 8.5/18 fronts and 10/18 rears. Mounted currently are 225/40 and 285/30 Michelin Pilot Sport. Looking to get a set of TOYO RA1s for track and autox, but as you all know, the RA1s only come in discreet sizes and they don't have 285s. Has anyone tried 245/40 fronts and 305/35 rears without rolling fenders on a narrow body C2? Is 275s the widest i can go on the rear tires with RA1s? Help and experience appreciated and thanks in advance.

You can run the 305. Just dont lower it to much if you have coilovers. I run 295/30/19 and 235/35/19. the front 245/40 is close as well. Are you running coilovers at all? It should fit fine. If you need help with those tire prices PM me.

vividracing,
Thanks for the quick reply. I am running stock suspension and setup. Will probably increase the camber setting when i get the new RA1s mounted. Will drop you an email/PM tomorrow about the tires. Thanks again.
