Default Help with 17" rim width
The OEM cup rims I have on in my avatar have now become my AX/DE rims. I don't have them with me and am having "CRS" disease regarding the width of the rims front/back. Can anyone help?

Gracias. Now...for my next question. I'm looking to put some track tires on the car. Is there any problem going to 275 width on the back vs. the 255 tire that's stock for the 9" rim?

No worries, mate.

275's will work on those 9's although you'll get more understeer. Adjusting the swaybars should do the trick.

What Steve said :-)
What are you planning for the fron, though? The car understeers as it is. It'll understeer even more with 275 on the back.
