whats funny about 255's on a 10?

255 is more or less 8.5" +

275 for a 10 is perfect but it's alot of rubber for a 240 w/ low mods

Fronts may need a small roll if you plan of running 235 up front and 255 in the rear. Rear should be fine because your offset is pretty weak, might need a roll if you rub a little. Might help if you said what kind of camber and how low your car will be. Also throw a spacer on the rear so it won't look that bad.

My buddy just said it best... "Motegi's are pep-boy's JDM"

Sure they are better than 15's. But sex with a ugly fat chick is better than no sex. You get what I'm sayin?

Not that you need to worry yourself about what I think. I have no id... eh, see sig. Do your car the way you want, but like the others have said. Do research on offsets. No matter what wheels you choose, offset will really make or break the car. In some cases wheels and offset will break or compleatly destroy the car.

Oh, and +1 with the tire sizes. 245 for the rear for sure.

Just found this for ya... http://www.clubfr.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=7490
