Why do you want 245? Posted by Karl [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: What are the largest tires for '95 9000 Aero, Kurt Nelson, Mon, 18 Jun 2001 08:01:03 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I run stock 205/55-16 on my 97 9000 Aero. It currently has well in excess of 260 hp, and yes, traction is limited... But the stock suspension setup is engineered for 205/55, and deviating from this will increase sensitivity to ruts in the road, cause the car to wander during acceleration etc.
By far the best upgrade to improve traction is to switch to stiffer springs or dampers. I installed Bilsteins and that did marvels for my traction as the car no longer "sits back" during heavy acceleration. Try it!
