Car Info: the blue bucket
What offset is being used on that STI Jeremy?, that is the tire width we're looking to run on the L and I may also be looking into it for my other bucket too.

Rolled, HA!

I would think that they were more likely Pulled out to clear those puppies.
Damn, 275 hoosiers are huge in a 40 series.
I believe it when I see it.

There is absolutely no need to run such a wide tire on a WRX. 255's for GD and 245 for GC. That is the optimal width. Turn in w/ 255 sucks as is already. Now with 275's, it will be unbareble.

I mean for bragging rights, I guess it is cool. But other than that, silly.

Just my opinion.

You don't think a bigger contact patch is good for a 3XXX+lb car? Are you talking autox, street or track is silly?

More rubber is silly?

No, I don't think that you need that much more rubber.

Added weight, greatly reduced steering response, massive understeer and finally super load on factory wheel bearings makes it silly.

Any, street, auto-x or track. Either way. Like I said, it is my personal opinion. Not a fact like the time belt deal.

Go look up what size the tarmac spec WRC Impresa runs. Or any other stock chassis race Impreza.
