just be careful of their tire suggestions, vendors try to push e90 fitment and convinced me to get a 235 up front which caused rubbing.
ha! yeah, i've read enough of your posts to have learned that lesson before ruining any parts. so thanks for that! totally true.

i'm currently toying with a 235/40 8.5" et45, or even 225/45 8.0" et45, up front to combat rubbing and also to stay as close as possible to zero for the scrub radius. the most likely scenario thus far is...

225/45R18 8.5" et45 = front
255/40R18 9.5" et45 = rear

this will give me the stance (track and "arch fullness") i'm looking for, plus a wide variety of tread options.
