No rubbing that I've noticed during street driving. Will update after autocross this weekend on how they do when pushed

EDIT: Didn't notice any rubbing during autoX this weekend. The car felt much more neutral with the 245's up front, but I will say that I was disappointed in the overall level of grip from these tires. They're old Conti ExtremeContact DW tires and they felt like they had lower total grip than the stock size RE050A RFT's that I have used in previous events. In the market for a set of good tires (RE71, Rivals, Direzza, etc) and trying to decide whether I should stick with 245's up front or try 235's since high-performance tires tend to run a little wider...
