Debbie's driving an RX-8... totally different suspension geometry and fender clearance compared to an STi, though I have heard of people getting as wide as 275's on stock class autocross STis... I just don't know what the hell they're doing with their alignment/shocks to make that happen. My guess is they're running shock so stiff they're basically bypassing the springs.
Wasn't that Allon, a few years ago? And maybe that's why he went into the dirt so commandingly.
