Question for those running 40 series front and back
I'm about to get some new rims/tires from tirerack and even though I've lowered
the car, I think 40s front and rear should be fine but see 35 series when tirerack
configures the combo. I'm looking at the 18" AMG Monoblocks 8 front and 9 rear
wearing 225/40 front and 255/35 rear. So my question is: Can I run 40 rear? I'm
wondering if the 40 front/35 rear is that noticeable (look wise). I don't think the
40s will rub in the rear. Thanks.
BTW: Investigating some run flats too.....
