You have a drag car. Why do you have 255s up front?

Let's keep this pure, people. NO 205s/215s/225s/235s. Everyone and their mother can rock those on an S13 with no fender modifications at all, and they all happen to be on the small side.

YOUR CHASSIS: S13 coupe

WHEELS: Volk CE28N 17x9 +15
Volk TE37 17x9 +15

TIRES: Bridgestone Potenza RE01-R 245/40R17

MISC DETAILS: Suspension work. Rolled and pulled fenders. Camber at ~3.2* front, ~2.5* rear or something similar. Modified inner seam and pounded out wheel well. Note: +15 won't work in the front of an S13 if you're running KTS coilovers or similar and a 255 width tire. The tire rubs on the perches. The clearance is minimal at +10, but it does not rub.

PURPOSE OF CAR: Street/Track

PICTURES: None of the fitment. The front tires are under the fenders, the rear stick out a bit because a fellow 240er stole my roller.

The only reason I posted this is because people always are asking if 245s or 9s will fit in the front of a 240, despite the fact that there are many, many instances of tires and wheels as big or bigger fitting easily.
