Default 255 AP2

Will the slightly larger tires look ok in the back or will they stick out a little? Any rubbing? Thinking about Neovas in particular.

I didn't do it on mine, but I had a friend who did, and he said he rubbed... That is the only time I have heard of rubbing on AP2s though.

I've had 255s with RE050As and Ecsta MXs - the Bridgestones are rounder and the Kumhos are more square, but both look good and give good grip at the expense of mpg - I'd say about 10% from 245s.

I have Prodrives with 255s and I don't rub. They don't stick out to far and look really good

For those that aren't rubbing on 255's,

1. do you have your fenders rolled?

2. stock or aftermarket wheels? if aftermarket, what size and offset?
