wider wheels in the back on a fwd car? I was told they can cause more understeer.

to be honest I cant' actually see why..

Yeah they do and its stupid of me to have them setup like that. I originally had all 225 width, but when I lowered the car, I had to go with skinnier tires up front, but didnt want to replace the perfectly good tires in the rear. Its finally time for me to fix it.

is it just the angle or is your front tire really low?

obviously hes running a lower profile than the rear. But I love the rolled fenders!

Im running 225/45/17 all around and stock height. Rubbing while turning into lots or driveways. No rubbing what so ever during agressive cornering. So i'm guessing I couldnt lower just tiny bit huh? :blink:

also did you use a bat to roll the fenders? hot hairdryer or heat gun?

The tire is fine, I guess its the angle, I can't wait to get rid of those rubberbands!

bazarvo: do you have stock (old) suspension? I never rubbed with 225/45/17, I had lowering springs and new struts.

To roll the fenders I used a steel pipe and a scissor jack.
