Hmmmmmm unsure why but the front seems slightly small but should be ok,

i ran 235 F and 265 R on my old rx the new one runs 235 F and 255 R :Thumbs-up

dont see there being a problem. if anything i think thats a good set up. nice and wide on the back (where it counts) and nice and small on the front.
dragsters use that kind of set up (well slightly different sizes lol)
bet if gives the car a nice agressive stance!

she does look mean lol.. just curious really
theres quite a few nice surprises to look for..

Fronts need to be swapped for a wider tyre. IMO.

Width aside, nobody\'s mentioned the fact that he has 17\'s on the front and 18\'s on the rear... I know this is a popular combination for NSX\'s but I\'ve never seen it done on an RX. What\'s the reason behind it?

Some yank tanks have this set up too, Corvettes I think. Have you got a pic? wouldn\'t mind seeing what an RX looks like with this kind of setup.
