I saw they were on clearance for $450 per wheel which is odd because they were always $450 even before the clearance price
At any rate, if they are stopping production of the 19" line then that should make my wheels all the more valuable

It was more like a close out price but the price was still the same. Doesn't really makes sense but i'm glad i got the last set.

yeh, it should def make the 19s more valuable now.

Wow, civic sized tires, and you couldn't even figure out that you should have run a 255/40 rear to match the lame from size you picked.

Front tire is taller than the rear; do not like. I was curious when I saw the rake, as it looks like the overall rear height (ground to fender) is higher in the front. Have you measured?

You never know what the actually diameter of the setup is... with tires stretched two sizes more than a recommended max stretch, that diameter could be .500+ inch shorter.

Still funny to see how impractical people get with their sizing and fitment.

Well this is a bit annoying, my F/R were both rubbing..got my rears rolled and have a rear SPC camber kit on the way, my front still slightly rubs maybe one time a day but still annoying when it does.

So my question is do I have to get a front camber kit to solve the problem or is there any other way?

Lets get a bit of function back in this thread....

From the National at Summit Point this weekend.

Brian Kleeman in T3 trim (limited to 8.5" wide wheel and 245 A6's):


Rob Hines in T3 trim....Race winner as well:


Neither raced T2 (unfortunately they were in the same heat)...so no pics with 10" wide wheels and 285 A6's.

Also some 300zx **** for our recently promoted super mod, scotts300:

That's too bad.
I was debating on getting the 19x10 +22 for the fronts but I guess I wont be doing that now.

And that was the second thought that came to mind!

There is no other way. Those RS3s run wide, as do many of the competition-type tires these days. Only way is to change tires, have the wheel machined, or dial in some camber.

Rob and Bob are good dudes. And thanks for Z32 **** - I love it. Those are some big wheels. It's very hard to make Z32 TTs work as track cars. . . reliably at least. That's why mine is only going to go hard for ~10s at a time any more.
