Do you have standard suspension or coilovers as with a little camber in the back and too low a 245 could rub...a 235 should be fine as that's what I use

Yes mate standard sti springs at the moment possibly getting ast coilovers this summer. Do you think 8 x18 would be a better fit than a 8.5x18

An 8 or 8.5 is fine for a 235, I've not tried a 245 on mine
