So I was talking to a guy that works at a suspension shop today and was telling him about my car. I used all UMI stuff except for the front control arms and the springs and shocks which are AC DELCO stock parts. I told him my tire size which is 235/45/18 for right now on an 18x8 rim with 4.5 backspace. He told me at 26 inches my tire was too short for the 3.70 gears and the overdrive of the 6 speed. Is there any merit to this statement? I don’t know how the front will look with the front end sheetmetal on but the back looks good. It fills the wheelwell appropriately and shows enough sidewall to where it doesn’t look like a rubberband. Anybody else running a 26 inch tall tire? I will be going wider my next set but I doubt taller
