Rob 1390 Report post Posted May 3, 2014 Put rims like that on it and it will cost you 3 times as much every time you get new tires Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian 972 Report post Posted May 3, 2014 Not really, maybe 100-200 bucks more, and I'll be driving less than 10,000-15,000 miles a year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ace Of Spades 1182 Report post Posted May 4, 2014 Id imagine wider tires are better for the snow... 225... Get some white walls Actually the wider the tire the more you will hydroplane, but 225 is a good winter tire size. As fir summer tires, we've got 255s on our charger so i think 245s all around on the stang would be great 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Qdeathstar 1763 Report post Posted May 4, 2014 You cant hydroplane on ice.... More rubber = more grip. Edit: http://forums.audiworld.com/showthread.php?t=2767164Seems Nope Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace Of Spades 1182 Report post Posted May 5, 2014 Okay, well it does depend on the tire too, the deeper the tread the better (obviously) you get grip on snow because the snow in the tire tread grips itself better (snow masturbates) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Truth 429 Report post Posted May 5, 2014 Brian, what is your OEM tire size? There should be a sticker on the drivers door. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian 972 Report post Posted May 5, 2014 Car isn't at my home right now but Goodyear says stock tire size is P225/55R16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Truth 429 Report post Posted May 5, 2014 If you want to keep tire size about the same with the new rim go with a 225/45-18. You also need to take into account the width of the new rim and back spacing, if the back spacing is off then it'll rub when you turn. Also joining a mustang forum isn't a bad idea, I've joined a forum for most cars I've had. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian 972 Report post Posted May 6, 2014 Alright, the wheels came from American Muscle and they guarantee all their wheels and tires won't rub. Might just buy a set of tires from them if it won't cost anything more than other places. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
River 649 Report post Posted May 17, 2014 Had this m3 for like 4 years now. It's been an awesome car. I'm running 19" rims 275/30 (for rear, fronts are staggered thinner 255) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian 972 Report post Posted May 19, 2014 So this was my first weekend driving and I decided to just go ahead and tackle things like major traffic, a busy highway, and most difficult of all... navigating around the people and scooters in the Walmart parking lot. It was a good weekend Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CFO Charles 827 Report post Posted May 28, 2014 Bad news nobody. My supercollider super exploded. Seriously though, one of my cylinders is gone. Low compression issue in #2. According to my mechanic it seemed like the plug wasn't sparking and the cylinder kept getting sprayed with fuel. But what I don't get is apparently the cylinder can sometime just "come back" after a few days. How does that work, it seems a bit like magic to me.

Ace Of Spades 1182 Report post Posted May 28, 2014 Probably some moisture in your plug wire not allowing electrical current to reach your spark plug...mhm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CFO Charles 827 Report post Posted May 28, 2014 Probably some moisture in your plug wire not allowing electrical current to reach your spark plug...mhm. Well i'm pretty sure the plug was swapped out, don't know about the wiring.... I'm supposed to give it a few days and bring it back if it hasn't improved. Thankfully he's not charging me anything for it, (my in-law technically). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
