Front are 135r15 and rear 205/70 ![Wink](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/wink.gif) disks or drums up front? Suspension? Any rubbing issues with the 8's? I'm assuming they are replica 15x5.5's?

5cm (2 inches ?) narrowed beam with sway a way, 4 KYB shocks and drums. Indeed, the Empi 8 are replicas from the 80's in 5.5 ! The front of the car is low so I have to pay attention on the speed bumps but I have no rubbing issues, and I can turn the wheels to the max... So, everything is okay ![Smiley](http://cal-look.no/lounge/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
