Sounds to me you really didnt think things thru and maybe you should just get stickier and slightly wider tires (295s for 9.5 rears) and maybe upgrade the suspension.

Suspension is done. Offset brake clearance that is why the rears don't just move to the front. If a take the 8.5+38 and move it to the rear and widen it to 11.5 the wheel will sit closer to the suspension and will be sunken in. So i do think things through you dolt! That is why the rears get widened they at +25 and are flush with the body on the outside. Secondly I want to do the front to maintain the balanced handling that I have with a simple 1" staggered setting that I have. That will give me a neutral handling car so when it does misbehave its predictable. Who said anything about drifting?
Look at the picture they fit nicely don't they wide upfront as they are in the rear. Would you beat on a set of rims that cost as much (probably more) as your 240?
Finally fitment with width and flushness. So i can do it right.
I like my beater wheels and want them to be just as wide. Plus if you actually track a car and its wheel and tire combo are drastically different from the street to the track there is always a learning curve when transitioning from each form of usage. So did you think it through?
