Back on topic, 275's on 18x9.5 +27 NT03's (10mm spacer up front), proper photoshoot later next week after the car comes back from the bodyshop.

What did you do to get those to fit in the rear? Bumper tab relocation, roll and pull, and camber?

I have a set of wheels coming in May and I'm debating on running 255's or staying with the 245's i have on my Rota's. They wern't stretched badly at all.

Are you positive?

i would buy a set for my RS just for the track if it does. How much pull are we talking about? i wouldnt want to pull it out to a point where it flares out.

I agree with the fact that a lot of people in this thread are just jealous haters, but don't try to act like there is any benefit to stretching a tire that far. That's just absurd.

Someone did said something about street racing but im not gonna say any names..

And don't come back at me saying "Oh, I don't race at random" because I am calling BS from right now

This I got to see........

This stuff is great, spray it on before you go out on track and even Pagid brake dust will wipe right off...

I would use the 245s and when they wear out, switch to 255/35s. 245s are not super stretched for 9.5s... at least IMO.
