Re: NEED FOR SPEED UNDERGROUND 2
 

I have had 215/40/17 tires with a +42 offset rim for a couple of years now. There is TONS of room in the back but the front is a different story. I have barely touched the front fenderwell at the top a couple of times other than that no probs. Some minor fender rolling fixes that easily. I am also lowered about 1.5" with Eibach springs.

so basically 225/40/17 should be just fine smile.gif

Re: FS : lots of goodies UPDATED 10/10
 

I think if you are at stock ride height you SHOULD be able to roll with 225/40/16 with some fender rolling. That size of tire is actually .3 inches smaller in diameter than stock which will give a little more clearance. Let us know how it works for ya!! smile.gif

When you go with the 225, go to the track and let us know if there were any differences in your times.

it should definitely make some difference! First couple of time i went to the track with 195s and kept getting 16s, but once I got 205s and alignment i was able to improve my 60' time and my 1/4 mi time.

Re: Fuel Injector Question
 

OdessitPashka, if you're really set on 225s, I recommend you just get the front pair and try it out for a week, if you find that there's no problems then buy the other two. If however you do find you're rubbing then just move them to the back and get a smaller size for the fronts.

Personally I'm rolling on 205/40/17 with the eibach spring. I find that I'm rubbing a bit when the road isn't perfectly flat and my wheel is turned full lock.
