More Tread same Section Width
Who would have thought you could go to 255s in front and keep the same section width as 245s
The section width is a little bit more, but not much.
That's on a wider 9" Sport Techno wheel too.
Get some extra front grip, free of clearance problems.
Beats spacers any day
Now I wish I had 9.5" to run 265s

The rears are a different story.
Significantly more section width (305 on 11.5" vs 295 on 11").
Way overkill for a 2S
I would have stayed 295 but I was afraid to reduce the R/F diameter relationship to the upsized fronts.
Also, with an 11.5" even the 305 is stretched

It will be at least a week before I get car back from dealer (waiting on part from Germany).
I will add the front pics then.
The fronts look a lot better, but are not as flush as the rears now are.
(Expected since the pics show the lower differential between the front tires.)
These 255 iradicated any hint of understeer. I was suprized that the rear 305 is the first to loose grip.
