Your car has always been one of my favorites! If you ever want to sell it, you have a buyer

what tire size u running?
235/40/17 front and 245/40/17 rear. I wanted to run 245/40 all around so i could at least rotate front to back, however i don't think i'll run 245 up front until i get wide fenders. I'm already running -2.5 degrees and just clear w/ the 235 tire :/

are you rubbing or have to have a lot of camber? what tire are you using?

i'm pretty happy with the size of the 245 star spec. It seems visibly less stretched on a 9" rim than my 245 RE11s.

yeah i rub in the rear only at times, where its like a huge dip on the streets or like a big pothole. Im using the RE-01 255 with like -2 camber. I think seeing your set up im going 245 now

ah ic. i'm running -2.5 in the back too, so that helps. YENS2K has the same wheel specs with 255 NT05 and he had to run -4 degrees! i said no way i'm doing that, so i settled with 245!
