Kuhmo

Saw the ad for these in latest Grass Roots Motorsports, I was looking for an alternative to P zeros for stock wheel street/light track duty but they only show 18"

They also show this one, but only have it in 285/35/19, nothing listed for 255 or 265's fron the fronts

I just ordered the Kuhmo XS in the 285-35-19's for all four corners will let ya know when they get here and on the car. Running 19x10's all around though.

Thanks,
What wheels are you using up front?
I wanted to keep the factory wheels so hope they come out with something for the fronts 255 or even 265's

I did send them a message asking about that and also if they were going to make the V720 in 19" sizes

Mickey Thompson Street Comps are made in our OEM sizes (they did that on purpose to target Camaro, Mustang, and Challenger). I like my BFG Sport Comp 2's, and the reviews for both seem very positive. Prices were around the same last I checked.

Running Boss 302s wheels 19x10's up front with a spacer.

I was looking at running the stock Boss 9.5x19 rears with 285's on the front. Do you think that will also need a spacer? How big, 1/8" 1/4"?

Never tried that set up. With the Boss302s Rims I have a 1/4 inch spacer up front with a 3/8 backup. The 1/4 seems to clear with a little room to spare. You should have no issues with 9.5x19 with a spacer

FWIW..I have had good luck running Khumos on my auto cross cars with good results, I would not get them pre shaved however, just run them the way they come, break them in during a scuff routine and enjoy the ride. They seem to last as long as anything else and are usually less expensive.
