Hey all,
I've tracked my M240 3-4 times now on 245/35 Conti ExtremeContacts but it's about time to let them go and I'm interested in moving to 200tw's. Car is a weekend/fun car so not really concerned about rain/cold/whatever. Nothing is available in 245/35 however.
Setup: 8.5" +45 square wheels with a 5mm spacer in front, ST XA coilovers, Millway camber plates and currently aligned to -2.5F/-2R.
Leaning toward 235/40 RT660 right now since they're no skinnier than my 245/35s that are on the car right now, and 235 seems a bitter fit to an 8.5" wheel than a 255/35, etc...
All 3 sizes are within $20/tire of each other.
What say you, autox/track dudes? (And no, not in the mood to buy a set of 17x9 +42s with 255/40-17s although that's probably the best answer.)
