From what I read awhile back, I believe Mark Sipes uses 245/40/17 in the front.

Some have experienced wheel rub with the stock spring/shocks.

I'm hoping that the stiff coilover set up in front will counter this.

Have to wait and see.

You need 1/4" spacer with stock wheel. eom 02:12 7/21/2000 (0)
