jesselm Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Hey Does anyone know what the tire sizes are for the '13 Super Snake? I read that the rear rim will measure 11" for the non wide-body edition, but I haven't seen any mention of tire width, front or back. I guess I'll also ask what the tire sizes for the wide-body option will be, front and back. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICOOLUM Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I thought I read somewhere it was 285's. I have one on order and I hope It's 315's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyperStangs Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 The new Super Snake is wearing Super Sport tires, and Michelin doesn't make a 315/30.... so Im guessing its either a 285/295 in 30 aspect. Just my guess.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my guess.... a 2013 GT500 super snake rocks an 11" wide rear wheel. better not be a 285 or even a 295 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I HOPE NOT! I know it was a 300 series tires, I just don't remember the rest after the 3. 305 maybe? It's posted SOMEWHERE because I know I read it.

2010KonaBlueGT Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Looks too tall to be a 30 aspect. When I said 300 SERIES I meant like a 305, 315, etc. Not a 30 series aspect ratio (20 series, 30 series, 40 series, etc.). It was a 300 and something WIDE tire.

jesselm Posted October 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Thank-you for that! Can you also provide the tire and rim sizes included with the front and back wide-body option for the '13 Super Snake? I've noticed in pictures there is 345 rubber on the back rims of the 2013 Carroll Shelby Tribute GT500, which I've read are 14" wide. Thanks in advance!

2010KonaBlueGT Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 345 in the rear on 13" 265 in the front on 10" Roger I was apparently thinking of the S-1000 when I remembered them being a 300 series tire. I'm actually surprised that Shelby went to a 11" wide wheel but only runs a 295. Phill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svt13 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Why does it still have a 255 on the front is what I am wondering? Its funny now that I look at the SS wheels more. I'm starting to kinda like them actually lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm starting to kinda like them actually lol. Is it because the front rims for the Super Snake are 20" instead of the 19's on the non-Super Snake '13 GT500?

jesselm Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I'm actually surprised that Shelby went to a 11" wide wheel but only runs a 295. Phill +1 ...an extra 1.5" in rim width compared to the stock rims, but only 10mm extra tire width (both rims 20")? Am I missing something here?

jesselm Posted October 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 255-35-ZR-20 on 20" x 9.5" front rim It seems odd to me that the front rim is only a 1/2 inch wider with the front wide-body kit (10"), and the tire width is only 10 mm wider (265).
