My last car was a M roadster... I'm just curious for those with 255+ in the rears and 225+ in front... how has it affected your MPG? Stock Ms are staggered... but I"m not sure I want staggered...have to ask the folks who has gone force induction if this is a requirement.

Last comment/questions... what's with all this stretch wheel? Any benefit other than a style folks go for?

Funny you should mention that. I am actually going to lower it more this weekend to make it more flush with the fender. Will post a picture once I'm done.

Lowered it more yesterday to remove the gap completely. Ran Malibu canyons this morning and I felt like it handled even better than before. Also no issues with rubbing or anything like that.

Looks good Apollo, oddly with that size tire doesn't appear to much wheel edge showing? What kind of camber you currently running with that setup f&r?

I think in the front its around -.7~-.9 and in the rear -2.2~-2.5. Once these tires wear out, I will probably go with 255's...I have enough room for it. Maybe add a little more camber in the front.

That's impressive for front if that low. I actually was shying away from 9.5" in front but I do love the look and having some concave to. Seems most are -2 up front with wide wheels like this hence why I asked. Looks great man!

That's cause mpss are naturally a bigger tire though. His are 245/35. A mpss in a 255/35 is more to what others 265/35s are.
