^ If your caster is bad, you could get a front camber kit and it'd be adjustable then

Adon, you need to slap some smaller tires on to solve ur rubbing issues. Run a 235/35 up front and take ur 255/35 and throw it on the backs. That will atleast give you some more stretch and will hopefully help!

I had those for a while, not bad imo. Just seems to be a lot more slippery during the rain than other brands I've used.

I'll be switching from RE11s to Re050s lol I think wet grip is the least of my worries.

What sizes did you have stretched?

I did a 235/35 and 255/35 on a 10/11. Nothing too crazy, but they held up decently relative to some of the tires I've tried.

That's basically the stretch I'm doing lol (expect 225 on the front) Just knocking 10mm off each tread width.

I'm getting almost brand new (90% left) potenzas for roughly $250 in the sizes I need, I just hope they're not a bitch to remove.

I've read they run true, would you agree?
