Can you take a pic of the rear at ground level when you have some time?
thats exactly what these do. You can see the bottom part of the tire extend out past the sideskirt and rear bumper... it looks wicked, I'll get you a better pic tomarrow

Looks nice. An Evo local to me runs the SSR's and 245 Hoosiers for autox'ing.
wow, you went with the 255's...? you're not getting any rubbing up front...?
I run 255/40 Victoracers on my stock rims lowered with Tanabe springs and I don't get any rub front or back.
I love the look of the 255's. Nice and meaty

Holy moly a loss of 20 pounds total? Now that's light, considering the width of the rear tire . Since you bought these wheels for a purpose, I must again say good buy .

i was thinking if you installed rear strut bar, you would get less rubbing because the chassis would be stiffer and you'd get less bodyroll...

they look super nice on the car than compare to seeing the wheels alone. In the pic they didn't look like they're gonna rub in the rear... Anyway, good choice. Too bad they don't come in 17x9 or I'll be all over them.
