    huh? that guy runs a 235 out back and a 225 up front.

    hold on what tires do you have on that youll be using. a 225 in falkens (for example) stretch like a 215 in other brands with stiffer sidewalls.

    nitto nt555's

    "Im running NT555s 225/40/18 on my front wheels, whereI was previously running Falkens in the exact same size.
    Ntto seems to be a size bigger (235) when you compare it to the Falken tire(ZE-512)."

    well this weekend im gonna go up to discount... heres the plan:

    first tell them that i have bought 3 sets of expensive tires from the. then tell them i have the road hazard protection on my nittos. then ask them, nicely, if they can replace the front 2 (the ones w/ gashes) and back 2 since they have nails in em, and get 215's instead of 235's and 2 new 235's for my backs. if that doesnt work, then ill ask them if they replace the 2 of the 235's ill buy 2 215's from em. and that should work.

    I still have to get a set of 5mm spacers for up front and then get lugs. so it might take a while. but who knows.

    5mm front 10mm back will work right?

    UPDATE: ummmm i was looking on the ecstuning site (where i bought my h&r spacers) they saying the 10mm only work for OEM wheels only???? wtf? that true?

    good plan. just hope they give you new tires. they are usually pretty stingy. but if you can get 215s and call it a day.
