Hey Mark
I can get the same wheels as yours locally for equivalent of $2000usd in gt2 size balanced & fitted.
Edit; just been advised that tires choice are very limited in GT2 sizes and best to stick with 8 or 8.5F with 11R.

go for it! 8.5 x 12! gt2 fitment ( they know the std fitment ) you will need to roll the fenders ( NO BIG DEAL ..promise ) but your fender liner situation ( such as i have ) wont occur with the stock liners unless you're doing that insane stuff i am, ( literally bouncing off of dirt cambered road berms etc ) and even then it'll take MANY sets of rears before the liner rub became visible or even an "issue" though mine do need replacing now w the gt2 rear liners. i'm also on my 6th set of rears running a 12!

Yes I do remember the Kline and I still love it, I do trust your advise.
What about 235-40F with 305-30R, will that work with my awd? I know 315-30R with 245-40 works best best but there's more options in 305.
Very nice shot Powdrhound, do you have a side view?

never tried it! so cant help with it, i only vaguely remember the odd behavior of the ecu when new tires mess with the ecu for a minute, so those sixes might contribute to that piece of fun, but again, i'm 235/40x315/30 for life.. i also do think that you'd have no more difficulty finding gt2 sized tires down undah, than we do here. choices are very limited, it is true, but you only need one choice for daily driving.
add: dang, that hounds car is one good lookin" sumbit*h. lol
