fuzion tires on sale at firestone stores
You guys have me sold on the fuzions and I can get them locally on sale at a Firestone store cheaper than what tire rack has them for.
I have a question though, I have an 86 and plan to go up on sizes to 225/50 and 245/45. My question is will I have rubbing issues? If I pushed the car hard before in a like skidpad type event, it would rub quite a bit with the original sizes and original shocks, springs, bars.
I know I need to upgrade the bars etc. and plan to, but money is king. If I had it I would put S03's on this thing and M030 ft and rear bars and konis and the list goes on......
Should I stick w/ 205 and 225 until I can afford to upgrade the suspension?
Or should I be ok w/ 225 and 245, for normal driving conditions until I can afford to upgrade the suspension?

I ran 255-40/17 (R) and 215-40/17 (F) on MM 993 Cups on my 86. I felt the 215 was too narrow when compared to the 255 rears. Understeer was more pronounced at limit. I hadvery monor rubbing issues at the LR. I feel the 225 would be a better choice if you stick with the 245's on the rear. I run 275-40/17 and 255-40/17 Fuzions now on CCW's, stock suspension with Koni's, and love them with no rubbing issues at all. YMMV
