Tire Size Calculator Program
To use the Tire Calculator, enter the top part of the
data into the form. For Example P255-50R-15
Would Enter 255 for the Width, 50 for the Aspect
Ratio and 15 is the Rim Diameter.
Note that this is the CALCULATED way to
determine the size. For exact, look for the tire specs
that you can often find online. The TireRack is a
good source of that information.

| These are the tires I currently run on "The Ripper". The Victoracers (v700) are looking like they are being phased out as they have less available sizes these days. The V710's are what I normally use. They are great tires for my use and I have not yet tried any other brand on "The Ripper". The VSE Cobra has BF Goodrich R1's. I purchased a set when they first came out and before the discontinue of the racing program. Well the have restarted it! I have reduced the size of the rears on the Cobra to 315's just to make sure they are not going to rub so they are the new series. The 335's might be a tick close to the outer fender, and I should likely need to change one of the rim half's to make the wheel wider (towards the inside) and the 335's will go without a glitch. The GT40 is rolling on BIAS ply AVON tires. The are small in the front, and big in the back. That is all you need to know... The Tiger is running on street radials but will likely get fitted with 205-50-15's all around, with the possibility of 225's on the back. The Tires I would use are the Victoracer V700's but they don't offer those sizes anymore. They do in the V710's line, so twist my arm. And of course as stated in the tire instructions these are racing tires and although they are DOT rated should not be used for street driving. Right... |
