I can't wait to dump the stock run-flats. I have nothing to compare them too currently, but it seems like my LT1 rides like a truck in the cooler weather.

Thanks! It is my favorite color of the 45+ cars I've owned so far. And I prefer lighter colors generally, but there is something about the dark green on this car that looks just right. In bright sun and when clean it really shows the metallic green. Was really disappointed they canceled it.

Not saying a square setup can't be good, but AFAIK it's typically chosen for cost savings through front-to-back tire rotation.

Here's a (slightly conservative, but still practical) wheel/tire sizing guide:
Code:
Wheel and Tire Widths
Rim     Min        Ideal       Max
5.0     155     165 or 175     185
5.5     165     175 or 185     195
6.0     175     185 or 195     205
6.5     185     195 or 205     215
7.0     195     205 or 215     225
7.5     205     215 or 225     235
8.0     215     225 or 235     245
8.5     225     235 or 245     255
9.0     235     245 or 255     265
9.5     245     255 or 265     275
10.0    255     265 or 275     285
10.5    265     275 or 285     295
11.0    275     285 or 295     305
11.5    285     295 or 305     315
12.0    295     305 or 315     325
12.5    305     315 or 325     335

Late response, but the search function brought me here. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing this info.
