I thought you were running something more resembling a Cup car. What size tire are you running front/rear?

I can only speak from my experience - I ran 245 Pirelli slicks upfront on a 8.5" wheel and rubbed badly on sharp corners

24/64/18 front and 27/68/18. I can fit larger width tires on the car, but the car is so light it won't get them up to temperature.

I'm running 275 Hoosiers up front on 9 x 18's, without clearance issues. Car is pretty low.
