How do you guys deal with tire wear? I can't believe how badly my tires are wearing after i dropped my car on H and R sports. The outer and inner portion balds in 10k miles.

If you do the math, your rim is 279.4mm wide. Your tire stretched out is 392mm (245mm + 30% section width both sides).... putting it on would be nearly impossible (equivalent to a 279.4/16/19). Your tire would sit from the rim to top of the tire at 1.76", even less with load/car's weight... pretty much riding on razor blades. Something that tiny would have to be tended to very VERY often because if you lose too much pressure, you could come outside and see your tire spontaneously completely deflated sitting on the rim... or worse, you could have adverse consequences on the freeway. on another note, your current tires are totally useable so that would save you around what... $600? |

Does this count as being slammed lol?
Lowest I can go at the front because the bumper scrapes at almost every bump. We have LOTS of speed bumps out in the uk |

Im on handcocks :P.....Throw 3 fk bumpstops on the rears (each side) and more camber then you can go lower again. Are you on spacers? Im still kinda shocked at how bad youre rubbing with t1r's.
