Since it's a front wheel, a smaller diameter tire wouldn't affect the speedometer however, what about traction control?

Thinking about increasing negative camber using shims, how much clearance do you have now between the inside of the tire and the strut? I only have about a finger's width with my stock wheels and 225s. Might be forced to do it from the top . . . hello, camber plates!

I do not know how much room there is between the inside of the tire and the strut. I bet not much, but it's not rubbing so there must be enough... I thought about trying to put more camber into it to help, but as said before, it's a matter of millimeters in reality.
