Are you running 215F and 255R now? The understeer must be horrendous!

Is anyone with 17x9 +45 all around actually running the correct size non staggered setup of 255's all around?
I figure most guys with 17x8 fronts are running 235's and 17x9 rears are running 255's. That's the correct set up to run IMO.

Just a roll up front. If you don't and you are fairly low, you run the risk of crunching your fenders like PitchBlackAP1.

I run the same setup at the moment, and understeer isn't a problem. You have to take other things into consideration too, like suspension setup for example.
Nice! I am hoping to upgrade to 225 in the fronts. My front fenders are untouched and it looks like there shouldn't be a problem running the 225 since i'm not that low in the front either. Do you have a side view picture of your car so i can see how low your front is?
