Yea but I don't want to f up my CDC either, and 275 is just to big I think. I would like to do 235 and 255 but I want to salvage my wheels. I think I know what I will do. I'm either doing

235 on the front
245 on the rear.

Reason, because at least the 245 will wear out I will get 255 put on and be set.

245 fromt
255 rear

Same thought as before except that I will get more tread on the ground this way.

245 front
245 rear.

Same reasons and there was a guy who use to run this with a set of works and it looked good. Those I think are my most affordable options.

On a side note do you think I need extended studs? I don't think I need them but I don't think they would hurt either just a question.

I'm tossing the idea around. I may not. I this all screws the rear up I defiantly will. I'm getting a few quotes, but chances are I'm not. But like I said those are the 4 options I have.

As far as tires go, what are they worth? If they are decent tires, I would sell them or save them for a more positive camber setup. If you are going over -3 camber, run with cheap-o accelera's like me! Under $400 for a set shipped with high treadware and they stretched good for me. 225/40 and 255/35 is supposed to be the closest to equal stretch.

I'm still waiting for mayhem customs to get back to me on doing a custom wide set of fenders.
