305 Nitto's on stock SVTPP Wheels

They look like they fit, but just barely

Here is the Team Shelby thrend I got it from: http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php?/topic/65701-nitto-305-35-20/page__st__40

Nittos tend to run narrower, so might work just fine. Dont see a huge issue..BUT the size of tire is def not recommended for our wheel width

I say you try it.....if you like them and have no issues....I might get them as well hehe

guinea pig it is They def look good on there!!

I know alot of people used the 305s on the 18x9.5 wheels, as long as they are 9.5 inch rims you will be ok.

let's order a set and you can find out real quick!

Have a new set of nitto 555's 305/40/18 going on next week will let you know how they work

cool man. i read that thread a while. sounds like a lot bitchin over nothin. there are some good guys on that site, but there are a LOT that just really rub me wrong. this is one of them. oh well .... let me know how they fit. i need some new shoes for the pig

Well, how did those 305s fit on the 9.5's?? I've been looking a the 295/35/18 Nitto INVOs. I'm looking for new shoes as well.

They are supposed to be on by this weekend,held off on putting them on till my tvs arrived. Car is in the shop getting tires mounted, tvs and tune installed. Will let you know.

Definitely get back to us on the tires Rick. TVS is going to be awesome

if any one wants to see invos and experience them in person i have them on my sgt. LOVE THEM. best tire i have ever had. they performed exceptionally well at the sherriffs track. they take alot to get them hot on the road course and when they finaly do get hot they dont get greasy like the f1 supercars i had did.

Thats because you dont have a supercharger.

the road couldnt handle the awesomeness of me and a supercharger. it would crumble beneath my tires

All parts installed should be on dyno sometime monday will try and post pics of tires.

Car made 648 rwhp fuel system was at it limits, 72#injectors ordered, new fore hat pumps and rails, car still had a ton of timing left to go in just ran out fuel, stay tuned. https://2img.net/h/i1095.photobucket.com/albums/i461/rplummer67/IMAG0077.jpg

That is just awesome Rick! Supercharger looks great on there, and HP wise you are looking at a monster of a car...and an even more monster when you get more fuel!

What final number are you looking for once you get the fuel sufficient and the timing bumped up?

The kind of number that breaks stuff....

That's what I'm talking about! Lol

but sooo fun trying

Not really, you start pushing 750rwhp and that's when stuff breaks in the higher rpm's. Have a feeling I will need injectors soon also, once the tb goes on.

This is it, DONE, Cant wait to get it all together,not really hung up on dyno numbers,just want everything right, hate doing stuff twice. Would rather stay a little conservative than stretch the limits. The car has to remain reliable and maintain its drivability. So to cut my rambling the numbers are where there are it should make in the high sixes . Just hoping it all gets done by the Shelby meet.....hint hint . I have all the confidence in the world!!!!

I have a building ridin on it...

LOL... no you don't. We are gonna handle that regardless. I never thought of using that as motivator, hhhmmmmmm. hahaha

It will get done.If I have to make the hat myself.No worries.It did sing a sweet song today though,nothin like a blower makin noise.

Well said sir, I am in total agreement with you.

Can't wait to see it. Sounds like a beast

Nittos rule.
