On the other hand, Bridgetone RE71R run thin, I have 235/45's on my 17x8 wheels.

Maybe you already have negative camber up front via camber bolts though, that would cause the tire to be closer to the spring perch.

I am lowered on swift R spings I will hve to check the front camber and I am also on 17x9+42.

Discount tire is matching the Costco price so I will know soon enough
