205/45 tires for 205 hp.

I run 205/45 tires too, but not with 205hp.

 

It really depends on the rubber.

 

my all-seasons are 205/50-16s and hold full throttle in first, even when its below 40* outside. All in the rubber.....and the soft sidewalls help.

 

the old toyos wouldn't hold in 2nd but the new BFG's certainly do.

 

im running indy 500 wide ovals. in first gear on 8 psi i dont spin but on 10 psi in first i do 2nd is fine most of the time

 

I run Tiger Paws, white letters out.

 

Mastercraft or GTFO.

 

General AS-03 here. All the amazing silica compounding of the Continental DWS with a slightly softer rubber = win.

Damn, I can't wait til summer to put some real tires on.

 

You do not make 225whp

 

I have the DWS on my Outback as the winter tire and the wife's cooper. Excellent tire.

And I was serious about the 205/45 BFG Gforce. Even this morning's 38degrees, they hook pretty good still.

 

thank you 18 psi.. should i roll my rear tires over your back and floor it so you can tell me exactly how many ponys im putting down... or do you have another method

 

Yes, I have another method: its called a dyno.

Post up a plot or go **** yourself.
Club fagster wannabe poser bitch.

 

In before anus hazing....

 

nice rims!

 

I got the car dynoed today on a dynojet and i am making what i thought i was.

 

peak power and climbing at 7k on a 2560r? How much boost are you able to hold at redline?

 

lol
starting pull at 3500 has a lot to do with that

 

Honestly those wheels look rad, and some decent power behind it too. Nice car!

 

im running a gt2560r im able to hold 10 psi over the whole powerband. i also did the first two runs starting at 1500 rpms and came up with the same numbers. the last run was done at 3500 due to a lean spike at 2800 rpms which only happed on the dyno.
