Finally on the Road! Wanted to say Thanks!

I went with 225/55R in the front, the 245's will rub the inner fender in a tight corner. All GTA Fronts.
"54Rich", are you saying that you had to use a spacer while using GTA "front" wheels?? I know you have to use some if you have GTA "rear" wheels...but it's the first time I hear of someone needing spacers with "fronts"... I have some 255's on the rear of the car and 245's on the front of the car, all mounted on GTA "front" wheels, with no rubbing problem... Could it be that the rear axle is not perfectly centered under your car?...
