Alan,
You mention 255 all around strictly for autocross use and 245/255 for street/autocross. Would a 255/275 set-up work? I assume to do this I would need to get another pair of 8.5" rear wheels to use on the front. Does the stock rear offset work on the front? (Othrwise, I know it would be quite a stretch, but do you know if it would be possible to stuff 255s on the stock front 7.5" wheels?) Thanks again to everyone for chiming in - very much appreciated.

PS - I'm going to pick her up tonight!! I can't wait!
