It is kind of necessary when your car is cool and low. You should try it some time.

Turbo the KA, Toss some 255's out back and front and raise the car a little. Don't say you cant fit 255's up front, Its been done more then once.

Stretched tires are lame, I will never like them, Its the rice of today's imports.

FYI: Most IT class 240sx's run 225/50/15 and have plenty of grip.

215 Star Specs are plenty for what he is using the car for.

You're welcome.

I just happen to think the parts are so damn good, I want people to get them too. I wouldn't suggest crap parts to people.

Anywho...

i have a 255/35 up front on my s14 and they fit fine, no rubbing or anything. S13 fenders are probably smaller tho.

I tried a 215/45 once on my 14 and it rubbed the fender real bad and tore it apart. I had to use vice grips to tear it apart so I could turn.

I lower my car and have wide wheels, so monster tires aren't going to work for me.

damn, what were the wheel specs? The 18x9 +25's up front fit really well amazingly. But I do have a little wheel well gap, so I dunno how these tires will clear once I'm slammed.

oh yeah that's why lol. at +25 my wheels are flush with the fender...any less offset and those tires would rub/stick out for sure

i'm surprised you went with the type-X with this project, I thought you would've went with an aftermarket kit
