Alex,
I don't have an exact answer, I just sent an e-mail to Falken.
I'll keep you posted.

hehehe..i live here.
btw, i saw the ads of that new 452 from Modified Magazine. Try to search around but nothing come up. Guess they are new and not release yet????
also, while waiting for that, what is the price for
BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW 2 265x30x20
how much bigger they are compare to 255? thinking about change my front from 255 to 265.

Yes, they're still in production as far as I know.
I show them at $250 in the computer.
Should be 10mm wider by the book, what width rim do you have in the front?

9.5
10mm, that is 5mm inside and 5mm outside. I know i'm pushing it a bit but concern about rubbing issue.

What offsets are the fronts and how far is it dropped?
There are a bunch of race guys running 275/40R17 all the way around with +17 wheels.

Yeah, I know it's kinda rolled..
If you use an Eastwood roller, you can open up a little more room though.

i figure i will change my tire each 10K miles anyway so 25 to 30 shouldn't make that much of different. As of now, Continental Sport 2 is the only 305x25x20 and few people complain about how fast they run out (too soft) Hopefully the new Falken is better.
Chris, here are the picture. What you think? Am i pushing too much?

That sucks.
I think it would fit being that Falkens run a little narrow.

Chris, I sent you a PM about Nashville installers a day or so ago. Can you check your PMs for me?
