265 vs 275 tire question

OwnAge · 01-15-2010, 08:46 PM

Hey guys. I bought wheels (Alufelgen CS7) not that long ago with 275 Falken 452 tires. Love em. The thing is my friend has same wheels CSL reps (Velocity) with eagle 265 tires. I do not see any difference in tire width. At all. tires look the same.
Is there suppose to be much difference cause i thought 1 cm difference i would spot if i put them side by side but i cant.

Ill post some pics later on today.

falkens have round sidewalls, if the other tire has square sidewalls you probably wouldnt notice.

falkens are more drop friendly, cuz the sidewall clearance
