So I found out a few weeks ago that I have the 235's on all 4 tires and which gives me no rake, and I don't really like that at all, so I sort of planned to buy the Nitto 255's, but I also have the eiboch lowering springs and I have plans to buy KYB shocks, then I sort of sat there looking at the car and thinking..."Is that even going to fit?" So that's my question. Can I lower the car with the 255's and new shocks and not get any rubbing?

Yes, if you use the 235's on the front and the 255's on the back, you will get your rake and be able to adjust the rear to fit your taste. It is a trial and error job on the back, but shouldn't take any longer than about ten minutes to get it just right.

looks like I have a long way to go before I run into a problem then... What rims do you have, those are nice? Wait that's right you have a link to your site in your sig. Those are cool.
