the 255 is pretty square on the 8.5" b/c of the bead.

then again, i could get 13x9 up front and 13x8.5 rear.

guess we'll just have to wait and see.
considering the overall weight vs grip of a 255 up front and 225 rear (hoosier) honestly i don't see the need for an overkill wide wheel, especially if it affects your turning circle and destroys your scrub radius.

I hear ya.

13x8.5 is probably the best bet.

and honestly if shit hits the fan and the 255s are too wide the 225 wont be overly stretched on an 8.5" wheel.

225 R-Comps or 255 R-Comps would be awesome no doubt.
