alecela Report post Posted March 10, 2016 I'm ALMOST there in terms of retrofitting stock rotors & calipers on my 03 hence almost ready to order the 18" tires. I was all set on the Pirelli P zero corsa combo of 245/35/18 (24.5" diameters) + 335/30/18 (25.9" diameters) then JUST learned that Tirerack has ran out of the rear ones and won't restock until end of April! :-( My local dealer suggested exact P zero rosso at same combo but looking up tire rack, I noticed that 335/30/18 is slightly larger at 26.1" diameters. Has any one run the P zero rosso combo and no problem for the front differential? (i.e. 4WD intact)? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stimpy Report post Posted March 11, 2016 Tx. May I know which tires u r using, if u r running 18" stock setup? I am using the Rosso tires. I haven't had, and I don't expect an issue with the viscous coupling because the Rosso's are what's in the manual for the Gen 1 Murci's, see pic.

I checked around and was under the impression that the 2002-2004 Murcielago were fitted with 355mm rotor at front? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auraraptor Report post Posted March 13, 2016 I have a set of 18s with Rossos and a set with Corsas. Personally as a street tire, I like the Rossos. And yes, early Murci have the same 355mm rotors and calipers as the 6.0 before it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
