[DubSteve]

wat are you guys rubbing on?? i got 225/35 on the front wid no scrubs?? hmmm . . . oh + neg camber

I'm scrubbing on 215/45/16, for some reason then again my back suspension is a tad soft.

235/40/17? I think theyre dreaming. not to mention thats just the wrong size for a vr6

all tyre monkeys seem to think all cars are commonhores or that other tank.
coilovers are a must when doing this mod,look at mk3vr6 with his scrubbing hassles!!!

I need to stiffen up my rear springs.

[gpk_gti]

any stiffer than you have and you might as well have blocks of wood holding the suspension solid!! hehehe
whats the vdubing saying??

if it aint scrubbin ,it aint vdubbin!!! hehe

is a 7x7 that much of a problem to fit? wow. Im beging to think that an 8" wont fit. i still want 17"s, but i dont want coilovers. is there enouther way? Where do the tyres rub?

also a 235/40 r17 is within the 15mm allowable. (rolling diameter)

[Tim]

its not only rim width. its tyre width. even different brands of tyre sit on the rim differently.

A 235 will just look retarted...205 for the banana(I mean win)

nah, 235z would look phatt! though i think ud be supprised how much the hight diff would be compared to the stocko's i think, would bb interesting. Though its just your speedo you hav t worry about, i dont think d pigs would do u for your tread? eventhough its illegal for ill-fitting tyres ive never heard of anyone gettin dun faw it?

[Valver.]

235/40 isn't the right size. The rolling diameter - and thus your gearing (already too long) and speedo - would be screwed.

Tell them to man the f-ck up and stretch a 195/40 over it
