Still have my PBM LCA and Megan Toe arms to go on, so the rear will be dropped quite a bit more. Notching the front for more camber as well. Here's how she stands with BC Racing top hats maxed out right now, and natural real camber.

215 on 17x10 is not beefy

Frs123 · 12-10-2014, 10:24 PM

Would 215/40 be the same as 225/40? Height wise

Not quite I don't think, the bigger stretch would reduce the overall diameter of the tyre

The reason I'm ask is that I had 225/40 on a 18x10 wheel and the frame destroy my tire. So I'm trying to find another tire size so that I can have enough room without hitting the top portion of the frame.

Oh ok, the difference wouldn't be much, maybe 5mm?

215's on a 10 inch rim is a pretty crazy stretch tho lol

I've seen people do it without a problem. But I might just with 225/35 or 215/35 just to be safe with hitting the frame.

Yeah, just avoid pot holes at all costs lol, I ran 225/35's on my wrx, never saw the pot hole coming, turned my rim into a nice paperweight lol

Most tyre shops should be able to give you the exact numbers
