I noticed on the spec set up, that you are running a 235/35/20 inch tire for the fronts, Is there any reason, rather than the standard 245/35/20?

I think this is the reason major tire companies (Pirelli, Conti, etc) are bringing 245/30 and 255/30 etc tires to market. I really went round and round on this, and chose the 235/35 as it lines up mathematically (only a .02" difference in OD), to the rear 275
As I said previously, its not like a major big thing, but I just wanted to address something was a annoying thorn in my side! LOL

Just different needs. 
If my rear offsets were a little less aggressive, I would be going with 285s. Hmm. I wonder how much neg camber I would need to do this since we know the Nittos wear pretty well even with minor camber tweaks. It is kind of stupid, but I am reluctant to lose the entire fender tab.
