RTR's on my V6 Performance???

I'm assuming these will fit with the 275/40/19 all the way around, but I want to know if anyone has tried this before I place an order on wheels and tires before my car even shows up haha

Do you plan on lowering it more than an inch? If so, I'd skip them. Otherwise, they look killer on Kona:

I'm looking for 1/2 front and 3/4 rear. I don't really want to go lower than that.

You should be good then. That pic I posted is at stock ride height.

I have four Hankook 275/40/19's sitting in the garage....waiting for RTR's to arrive. I sure hope they fit. I've seen many pics showing 275's on all 4 sides and no comments I can find about rubbing. Also, Late Model Restoration sells a package with Nitto NT555's in 275 so we should be good. I hope.

Why's that? Rubbing somewhere?

The offset isn't forgiving to lowered cars and "square" edge tires. You'll need to run some camber to get them in without issues.

That's what I figured the problem was... Thanks.

Hytek, other than alignment, any other fitment issues with the RTR's and roush springs? Thanks.

None as of yet. My alignment feels fine since I put everything on last weekend, but I'm getting it checked Saturday just to be sure. Only problem now is I can't fit my floor jack under the car, need the one in the trunk.
