Yeah, I understand that part but wanted the specifics on parking aid/sensors and why it's even needed for the front. I could see it making more sense for the rears.

I actually did. I was looking for it for a long time in used cars. But I finally found it. Bought it instantly. It was 133.00 credits I believe.

Wowww 245 in front, that's pretty wide.
Are you running 8.5 or 9" rims?

I've got a set of 18's 295/30(track) and 19's 305/25 19 (street) but find the ride a little harsh with the lower profile tires on the 19's , however if you're running 20" with the same side wall as 18's that would make a huge different in comfort and I would love to run 20's too but acording to my calculations that would make the tire diameter a whopping 8% (2") bigger than stock which means 26mm more in the wheel well...

Outside of the speedo running 8% faster do you have any rubbing, abs or computer issues?

Thanks for all the info!!

Cheers,

Sid.
