Hey everyone,

Could I get some recommendations for tire sizes for the Buddy Club P1 Racing SF 17X9 or 17x8.5 +35 offset wheels? I'll be right around 500 HP with my turbo build and I don't really plan on lowering it.. yet. I was looking at the ADVAN Sport A/S tires. Wanting something functional that looks good and puts down the power.

mind if I ask your source for the 17x 8.5 with a +35 offset? as im pretty sure they only make the sf in 7.5 or 9 with a 45+ or 20ish.. unless you're referring to the challenge series (the one with the pinstripe), as I have zero knowledge on those

regardless you will def want a wayyy better (non a/s) tire and would highly suggest lowering it

Tires are not rated for HP so your question is irrelevant.

I think with a 500 hp car you'll want as sticky a tire as possible. That eliminates A/S tires, so his question does in fact have relevance.

I'm actually ordering through one of the "official" buddy club retailers, i'd be more than happy to pass along his contact information to you.

PasswordJDM also has those sizes in stock.
