305/35/20 Nitto 555r on stock wheels.

KingLT1 · 10-27-2018, 10:18 PM

Put a set of these on my ride today. They fit the stock rear wheels great. Look good, handle fine, and they hook great. I was able to do a 1200rpm launch and pretty much dead hook on 47 degree roads. No wag like you tend to get with MT's either. On stock run flats I was spinning from a 40 roll in second. First try was a 3.8 0-60 with 30psi in the tires.

Well, looks like I know what my next set of rear tires will be then... great info, thanks for the pics too!

Are the wheels chrome plated? They look great!

KingLT1 · 10-28-2018, 08:40 AM

Thanks!

They are PVD coated in a chrome finish. Kind of like a cross between Chrome and Polish... They won't pit or peel like Chrome plating. They do scratch but you can polish them out. Won't dull up like Polish. The PVD coating also doesn't add weight. Detroit wheel offers PVD in both black chrome and regular chrome.

Forgot to mention in OP that I did relocate the harness on driver side rear since it's tight...super easy to do so no biggie.

Dropped them down to 28 psi and this was the result.

Looking good man. Love the way the 305/35/20 tires sit.

Where is the wire harness relocation thread? My Google search didn't find it.

I will add that I would suggest poking a hole in the liner and adding a push clip to gain clearance so you don't rub through the liner as well. It's easy...there will be hole in the frame in the area where you see the liner has bee rubbed through in the picture. Poke a hole in that spot and use a push clip.
