245/35/17.

about the only thing i'd run with 17s- tirerack has at least one good option in this size IIRC.

if i ever get around to doing real fender flares, these with apex arc-8s.

No good tires come in that size. T1Rs did/do but that is all I have seen, and frankly they are mediocre tires.

Edit: just checked and the R1R comes in that size. So one decent tire does.

Oliver -- I have a full set of 245/40/17 Dunlop Star Specs for sale. Pretty used but they've got a few 32nds of tread and even wear across the tread face. Lemme know if you're interested.

sounds like what I have currently, I got excited when you said star specs but then got the sads

do you need 2 or 4?

mr. wheelshittingonstuff needs 2 as well, i think.

I just need 2

[oliver.r]

u mad brah? ;)

Try some subframe risers. Camber doesn't help tire wear but toe really ruins it. Camber increases pretty linearly with suspension bump but toe goes up exponentially. If you can raise the subframe by a half inch it should cut your toe down considerably.

I'd recommend an adjustable subframe but mine kept slipping. YMMV

condor risers it is then

drove it a lot very aggressively.
I will take Nates advise and see how that works out. I need to re do my rear subframe anyways

I don't know what apex is, but I'll be at my shop on sunday.

get your frame media blasted, weld those on and then PC it.
i wouldnt raise the subframe unless you plan to go lower than HR race springs.
