For those of you running the Hankook's and Kumho's... whats your thought about them? I'm really torn between the Hankook's and the Kumho's for obvious reasons. Once I figure out what tires I want to run i'll be getting a set of these rims. Or maybe I'll wait till the 949 Racing and buy a set of these wheels used from someone that buys a set of those.

Well... I bit the bullet and ordered these wheels yesterday, should have them in time for this weekends Auto-x. For people that go from a 215 to a 255 in the front, what adjustments are you making to the shocks?

Looks great with LBP, I think. Is any rolling required if you are at stock height?

No rolling should be required at stock height. My car is lowered on KW v3's and currently sits at 13 inches front/rear center of wheel to fender lip.

Very close to ordering these... are you guys running the 255/40 on front and rear? Or 245 front / something else? Running the same size all round is appealing as long as it doesn't cause rubbing issues anywhere.
