However, if I ran 245s all around, it'd actually be less points than the previous setup.
I was pretty proud of my 1.5 deg neg camber... I guess it needs much more.

1) I am not sure you can fit a 245 on a 7" rim..
2) Running 245's all around will reduce understeer and make the rear a bit more tossable. I know several folks who ran Carerra Lightweight 18" wheels, I believe 8" (possible 8.5", sorry) wide all around, with 245 hoosiers with great effect.
3) Hoosiers and R comps will wear on the outer edges with less than -2.0 degrees. I think Tirerack has a "care and feeding" section for all the top tires. Seeing neg camber of -2.5-5.0 is really where these tires need to be to maximize potential.
