Thursday and will let everyone know the results. Another big + is tires were $270.75 each including shipping. By having them shipped across state line = No Tax + $100 rebate coupon + $20 each installed and balanced = BIG SMILE!

How is the gap between the tires and the fenders?

Default I mean is the gap larger than before?

At the moment I am using standard suspensions and you know the gap.. So if I change to 275/30 I am worried that the gap will be more.

Should I be getting Coilover before using 275/30?

Default In theory, gap will be 6.7mm more, but car will also sit 6.7mm lower.......

Probably won't make much of a difference in appearance from that standpoint but the wider tires may make the car look more aggressive. Will really have to see the finished result to judge.
