Default I'm now staggered

After many jokes from Mike, I am now staggered. I am no longer running my "fuel efficiency setup"... for those of you who don't know my car was fitted with 205 - 50's all around. After 1 trip to Les Schwab to repair a leaky valve stem, and 2 trips to Autozone for a torque wrench and socket. I am now running

Did you go with OEM Bridgestones?

If not, on an AP1, the rear tires should be 245 to maintain the same contact patch as the S-02 225s

You might still be doing it wrong!

they are Huy's original tires. there is a slight difference in width of 225's, but I will address that when I get my all seasons in several weeks.
