Yep, stiff sidewall.

We used 285/30 on a 12J, bit of a stretch, pain to get on.
They come up big for the sizes though, 11J with a 285 the sidewalls are pretty much straight.

Do you mean treadwear?

I had a 255/35/18 rsr on an 11j rim with no issues getting seated at all. No bead blaster needed. I thibk a 245/40 or 245/35 would too or even a 235/40 with a real blast lol.
 
I was going to be a bit gay and go from a 235 40 17 maxxis maz1 down to a 215 45 17 on the front so I can go back to using standard wings. but wanted something that had roughly the same level of grip as I usually use 225/245 on the back, so didn't want it to be like driving with a pair of space savers on the front.

I know that they are like biscuits compared to some of the stuff other guys use but 9j is where im at.

*in my defence I do use xd9s that I bought new as skid wheels.
 
I would say those will still fit fine Gaz. The sidewalls will still stretch a bit, but you probably will need a bead blaster.
 
From memory a 235/40 RSR sat square on a 9j

So a 215/45 id say will go on fine without any issues. I evem doubt ud need a bead blaster but dependa on rim design.

The Feddys RS-R's stretch almost aswell as the normal feddys. Had 225/40's on my 10j XD9's and they went on as easy as any other tyre so a 215 on a 9J is most certainly possible.

Do you guys have NS2-R's in 195/50/15 ?
 
I know a 215 will go on a 9 :rolleyes: I just wanted to know what they stretched like as some track tyres are a lot wider than a regular tyre in the same size.
