[DeTomaso] Tire Measurements

[Chris Difani]

Will:

On my 335/35-18's, the wheel width is 12.5 in. This is on an 18 in wheel. My fronts are 17 in. wheels, with a wheel width of 9.5 in. These are Codington Campy clones via Marino, at Pantera East. 

Here's some pictures (which have been stripped from the list copy):


(deleted pictures)


The 17's in front, and the rear 18's, fit perfectly, like the fenders were designed specifically for them. My fenders have been "rolled", and that's what it takes for these tires. The tires are Michelin Pilot Sports. The whole package, tires from Tire Rack, and wheels from Marino, was $4800, which was back in 2003.

Hope this helps.

Chris

> I'm ordering new wheels and am trying to figure out the offset I need. Can someone tell me what the width is from the inner lip of the wheel to the outside edge of the tire on a 335?
