Tires for 21" wheels..

[JIMX681]

I have a set of Vorsteiner wheels on the way 21x9.5 and 21x11 and am trying to figure out which tires to go with. I see the recommended size and most common here is 265/30/21 and 305/25/21. Has anyone fitted 265/35/21 and 305/30/21? The roads around here suck and I was trying to get as much rubber on them as possible without sacrificing look. Any help is much appreciated.

I haven't found any tires in that size because everyone is out of stock. I went with 255/30/21 and 295/25/21 Federals. That was the ONLY tires I could source

Your wheel is wider than 11" in the rear to be running that tire right, probably a 12"? It looks like they are finally about to make a batch of Michelin Pilot super sports in 305/25/21, they are showing availability 8/20.

I went with 255 30 21 Front, 325 30 21 Rear. Michelin Pilot Super Sports. No one has tires most of the sizes are on back order.

Look into Vredestein tires, I know they come in 265 30 21 and 305 25 21. Member on here order those tires and they appear to be in stock.

See picture below for instructions. Hopefully it is self explanatory.

Just click on Manage Attachments... the window on the left pops up where you Browse and Upload the picture with the max dimensions of 1600 x 1200.

Yes, fronts have plenty room as its a normal size but the rear is a killer. If your offset is aggressive I don't recommend running a 30 sidewall. I may have to change out the size I'm running (325 30 21). My car is still being worked on, will post final results when finished.

I have an M6 GC with 265/30 and 295/25. I wish I would have gone wider. Any rock or pothole causes road rash. Go as wide or big as possible because it will cause damage if you don't. Just my 2 cents.

I have an extra pair of 325/30/21 michelin pilot super sports if interested. Tires were never driven on, only installed and taken off.
