Think of it this way, Tinter white you never have to colour match. Its always the same.
I had the 195/50's up front. Was running 205/50's on the back all day.
It was just a suggestion... I know I just want it some form of white. Ulra white sounds.... ultra.
Thanks mark, that helps a lot.
Thanks for the tips Takai... taken it all on board.
Ill figure it all out eventually.... just brainstorming ATM.
Sometime at the end of next year Ill strip the car down, do a full seam and spot weld, full set of monkey bars and paint it some dope colour, this is just to neaten it up a little.

ahh ok. how did it go spinning 205s?
They were great when i jacked them to 45-50psi haha.
I think I need to get some narrower wheels, like some 9's or 9.5's so I can run a 195/50. Im hoping that a tune so it actually makes some power, some 4.56 gears with the TRD flywheel in there will make a big difference and ill bake em a lot harder.
Fuck all grunt, 4.11's and a stock flywheel werent helping matters. I had to wring it's neck almost every corner.
sounds like my last track outing lol.
doing well to even spin 205's tho!!
Yeah, if you got through the understeer unscathed, and you had enough speed and revs so she didnt bog down, it'd fry em. Motor has a lot of torque for a OEM bigport.
Towards the end of the day, my entry speeds were higher and I was pushing a lot harder, so it was working well for me. Im pretty pleased how it all worked seeing as it was mostly unsorted and untested.
Id like to run 205's all the time if I can as it has really good grip and corner speed, Ill see how it all goes after I have it tuned and the rest of the driveline is finished. If it's still fighting a losing battle, I'll go on the hunt for some 15 x 8.5 and 9.5's so i can run stretched 195/50's all the time.

nah, the R1R's dont come in a 185
Only 195/50. or 205/50.
R1R's > RE001's.
That being said, Ill probably switch to RE001's on the back. Run 205/50's all round, R1R's up front, RE001's down back.
Or if I go a slightly narrower wheel, 195/50's all round.
