Hello,

I am not a Silvia driver (despite my love for the cars S13 S14 S15). I drive a 2007 Accord sedan and am active on V6performance.net

More to the point, I have been working on a 3D Silvia S13 since about 2006, many times stopping and reworking it.

Anyways I have started working on it again and made Volk CE28N 18x10 +0 wheels (I know this offset + size is not actually one they sell in real life)

You can see pics here:
Silvia 2011 - a set on Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/sets/72157625908138864/)

Next on my list is to make a 3D tire (with 3D tread) so the wheel+tire can be done.

What size/brand tire should be placed on this width of wheel? I'd like to get the full specs of the tire so I can make it accurately (sidewall height, along with section width).

I appreciate any help!

Looking more specifically for the size, over brand, brand is a secondary thing

Slicks are obviously easier to make :D

I will check out the wheel fit thread

25.4mm (1 inch) x 10 = 254mm... so 275/40 I would say is good.

255/40-17 Kumho 710, or a 245/40-17 Hoosier R6. Easy to model, just two tread grooves. The tire size will actually work with an S chassis.

275/40-17 if you want something marshmellow style.

That's a really tall tire.

I'd personally go with a 255/35-18
