It's not ideal but you can run 215/45/17 front and 235/40/17 rear. I think that the 255/40/17 may be too much for the 8" rear.

but you could also run the 8's and 9's set up...that way if you lower the car, add camber you could probably run a 255/40 in the back.

I have decided with much excel spreadsheet comparisons that this is the same setup I will be using. I will order mine in the next few days. I have the same size rims and about the same offsets.

Yes the 255 is to much for an 8" rim.

The % front to rear rubber is a little more biased to the front compared to stock but this might be good for the Auto-x course as it won't plow as much and be able to handle the off gas hard turns. Watch out for the gas as at the limit the car will probably step out more as there is pleanty of rubber there but as a % to the front it's less than it used to be.(more overall though!!!!)
