Yokes in 255 size

Every tire, car and wheel offset is a little different. To really figure out
is these will fit you haveta do the match, which means taking the actual
tire measurements and factoring in the wheel offset.  Also, what kind of
suspension settings are you running?

Now I have to ask you .... why the A032R's?  The only thing these are really
good for is running the track in the wet.  They stink at auto-x compared to
what else is out there, and they are easily 1.5 to 2 seconds slower on a
track like Summit Point.  I had 'em - didn't like them.  Hoosier makes a
245/40/17 that should be just the ticket.
