REAR TIRES: 245/45R17
DETAILS: ISR Pro coilovers

The previous owner used this car for autocross, I would like to make it more daily driveable by adjusting the coilovers to raise the ride height a bit, and putting some all-season tires on. The front tires are stretched and the previous owner told me this was necessary to prevent rubbing with the current setup. If I raise the ride height what size tire would fit a 9" wheel on the front without rubbing?

If I need to figure out the offset for this question to be answered let me know and I'll get to measuring.









245/40 fits about perfect on a 17x9 wheel. Could probably fit a little wider if wanted, but much better than some stance BS.
