255 on a 8.5" in front?
Hey guys. Hitting Sebring pretty soon. Just picked up a set of CE28s.
Rear: 17x9 +54
Front: 17x8.5 +50
Anyone run a 255 on a 8.5" rim on the front? My thinking is that it'll slightly pinch the tire. Just wondering if it will have any adverse effects on handling.
Or option B, run a 245 up front and a 255 on the rear.

I don't care if its rubbing. Fenders have already been rolled. Gonna flare them to get the 255 in there.
My main concern is if it had any affects on the car's handling with the tire being slightly pinched.

I run 255's on AP2 rears (8.5 +65) at all 4 corners. It'll work just fine.
What ride height?
Something I want to try next, I have KW3 and a -2"ride height at front ...
Thanks for any help guys,
Steve
