They are 305/35/20 but unless you have a gen 2 watts link with the chasis brace otherwise they can (and will) rub while cornering.

Interesting.

What kind of difficulty are we talking to install the Watts link?

For the average Joe at home, 4-6 hrs...a shop will charge roughly 3 hrs

This has been stated here before, but there are tons of people on these forums running 305s on stock and lowered GTs with no rub and no watts link.

And the fronts?? Please tell me the fronts are not 305/35/20's ... is there no other diameter choice except 27.7 from the 275/35/20? Won't the steering be really heavy?? Erik
