Don't track at all..... been wanting too but car is not setup to even have a great run.... 
I guess i just wanted to run a wide tire but i was mostly concerned about the rears rubbing again and then having to run -camber to clear the 255's

oh ic. well i have the 17x9 +45 rears w/ 255s running the UK spec alignment. i don't rub at all w/ the fenders rolled and tab relocated. So you should be fine, depending on what alignment specs you go with.

What do you mean by this Marcos?
I would never run 255 all around, unless your a pro
235 fronts
255 rear
try and account for the sidewall difference.

meaning the car wont oversteer as much, which it has a horrible tendency to do anyways.

Well i have 235-45 up front..... 255-40 should match up pretty damn good right?

255/40 is a 102mm sidewall and 235/45 is a 105.75mm sidewall...so your front sidewalls will be larger by 3.75mm. shouldn't be too noticeable.
