At least I fixed my sunken battleship
Jio, I was just messin with ya ...but in all seriousness at the power levels you are making those tires would more then likely hurt your performance more then help it. 295's are not light. But that's an argument for a different thread.

And i have to agree with you on 295's tires being Heavy and can definitely hurt your car if it doesn't have enough power.
Can you believe that the Work Meisters(19x10.5) that i had weight 58.6lb! with a 285/35/19 tire

lol, dick.... I need to order a new center console, the tabs that the boot screw into are broken off so it just sits there.
I think that's a compliment.... thanks! Next to the wideband is my boost controller (Blitz sbc id). The radio is non existent right now lol. For long drives I've been using one ear phone and my ipod. I wanted to install a double din nav/dvd player, but I'm still undecided. I kind of like the car without the radio.
I've removed/moved Cabaynes Work Meisters enough to know they're no RPF1's haha. (18x10 with 285's)

Forgot to add... The gauge pod is made by tripower I believe. It's got a texture to it and actually matches the interior nicely.

As much as i dislike you scrub that's a very nice interior What's right next to the Wideband and where is your Radio?

Not just about weight.
Depends on tire manufacturer too.
Depends on sidewall strength too.
Depends on the Overall diameter of the car too.
Lots of things.
R-Magic's Rx7 runs 255s all around with 590 horsepower to set a 55 second tsukuba lap time (2 of the fastest RWD times). And I personally know that this setup is competitive on many other track as well.
800-900 hp Skyline GT-Rs run 265s all around for 54 second lap times.
A car for "Track racing" is setup from the ground up on tire size and compound. EVERYTHING is dialed around that.

Giases are reclinable and carbon kevlar shells, I'm pretty sure that's a Vios
I have some Vios IIIs too and the shoulder bolsters do touch, but not by a lot

Its made by personal, not sure of the exact model as I didn't purchase it (Came with the car).
Personally I don't like it & its looking pretty worn now...Just ordered up a bunch of new interior goodies, inclu a new Nardi steering wheel, spirit r hand brake/boot, shift boot & loads of other random oem stuff etc...Will post up pics when it all arrives

Lookin good Ceylon! all you need now is roll the rear fenders out and slap some spacers and call it a day.
As far as tires go any car with 450whp+ should be running 295 to 305 in the rear with a dragradial or r compound.. If your car is putting down 300-350 i wouldnt bother with a 295..
i run 255 up front and 285/295 in the rear with either Dunlop Direzza Star Spec or Toyo ra1 up front and any kind of drag radial tire in the rear and my car gets very good traction and it handles like if it was on rails.

Cheers Bew,
I'm running 265 rears atm on a 10j rim & 235 fronts on a 9j rim (Toyo R1R's). Still got the twins atm too...Looking to do a single conversion late spring when its warmer...Prob going with a 500r. Aiming for 400-450whp
Regarding bodywork...I'm going with the feed rears, riveted on, not molded.
Cant decide on stock R1 spoiler vs shine lip spoiler....
Shine feed hood most likely.
& she defiantly needs new shoes! Not a fan of these heavy three piece wheels ;P
Colour wise...White or black...I will decide last minute most likely lol.
