ET 22 front
ET 28 rear

Front tire is 265/30/19

Didn't have extensive drive time today. But no apparent rubbing in the rear. Had what sounded like some fender well rubbing on full lock up front.

I'm running 265/30R19 Pilot Super Sports up front on stock wheels. Only seems to rub slightly at full lock in reverse.

Thanks Guys - wish this was a permanent change out,...

I need mention my suspension is 100% stock.

About the tires: I've heard that r-comps tend to actually be a bit wider than the same sized regular street tire. I suspect w/ thin spacers and some negative camber you could dial out some of the front rub.

I'll post up driving impressions when I get some time to....
