Thoughts: 255/40/18 and 275/35/18 PS2s
I need some new rubber and I can't decide on the 255/40 or 245/40 in the front. I think both will fit. I'm comfortable with the 275s on the rear.
What does everyone think of upping the front as well as the rear by 10mm? Will the balance of the car change? I do not want the front to have way more grip than the rear and for the car to want to swap ends on me...
Will it even matter?
TIA

I put the 275's on the rear of mine, but I kept the 245's front just because I think it might mess with handling if you go wider. Also, will 255's fit on the front?

Go with the 255 in the front with the stock rims and 285 in the rear. The car will handle better surprisingly.
