Yepp, exactly why I decided to share this in this thread where some are having greater wear in the fronts.

Hmm, very interesting thought. Never really thought about that being a posible factor. But I would still imagine that it should be more or less the same wear on the cars running OEM specs (225 fronts and 255 rears) if talking about the width itself.. :P
