Thanks but we need 25mm. They are for the racecar and we are maximizing the rules!

I hope you don't think that this is the same as widening the track width?

I am interested in your comment, tell me more...

Also we do need them to keep the inside of the top of the tire from rubbing the top near where the shock mount is.

We are running at a 5.5" ride height with 245 45 17

While it does increase track there are side effects like scrub radius etc. Essentially the you're screwing up the geometry by going moving the wheel out that far. It's not all like designing a suspension with that width track. Thats just what the hellaflush tards do to look what they perceive to be *cool*.

Are you required to run such a tall tire i.e. why are you using that size rather than a 245/40-17?
