actually i didn't do anything its all stock my one same as everyone's biggest concern was that will different size tires work.... but actually if u look on wheel size calculator 275/35/19 and 335/30/19 is only 1.4% different at first i was getting traction light etc... until my tuner did his work after that the car ran amazing no lights on the dash nothing already put 500 miles on it after tune had no issues the only thing i notice is that when u floor it it has a lot more power in the front tends to spin front wheels but my friend has 600whp evo he has the same issue front tends to spin.... i am still thinking about putting 335s all around or alteast 325s but thats for the future

he didnt do anything for for awd system just tuned it and all works just fine no light no codes runs amazing it was done at strickly modified in shaumburg il i am telling you based on my experience evo can have different size tires as long as they are no more than 2% different

Either way seeing the car from behind is just beastly.... I thought I liked the rear look of an Evo with 275s...... This looks much better.
Unfortunately people seem to constantly bother this guy because of how he writes. Yet I'm seeing what appears to be progress fabbing when others here just bolt on parts. At least he's pushing the envelope. Trying things that seem odd or incorrect because it's interesting.
I'm sure many many years ago someone had the bright idea to turbocharge a small car and give it four wheel drive. Others probably laughed and made fun of using "4x4" on a car which can't off-road anyways..... And now look where we are with yaw control and active differentials making 150hp/liter from the factory.
Sure his spelling isn't great and his posts read like a teenager from the civic boards.... But this guy is doing stuff. I'm still blown away he's got this much flack from 2010 and showed us a very well put together car.
Even IF the TCase blows.... if he has got a year out of it, who cares? What I'm hearing is that it's okay on these boards to blow engine after engine, turbo after turbo.... but you can't mess with a TCase at all even if it gets you 300+ tread width for a year reliably.
I'll give props for the build. Not afraid to do so either.

.Build looks good so far. Part of the whole thing is to have something "special". I'd say your car definitely is at this point. Nobody can say they fit the tires you have.
Cheers
