That's what I figured regarding tire diameter - and why I went with that size to save a hundred bucks over the cheapest 215/45 snows. Still, they seem frickin huge! And since my 070s are still at least 50%, I don't think wear has anything to do with size, plus they should be a bit wider making the size seem bigger. Maybe it's the bubble walls over the straight sidewalls. Oh well, they're big, and I know I NEED negative camber to drop the car - bit time!
By the way, responding to your email right now.
I'm still a fan of the quick camber change concept, but if all I can squeeze out of the spring/strut combo is about -2.2*, you're right - that's going to have to be good enough for fun, and would be good for the street. I'm used to running about -4-5* on the street in the rear with stupid amounts of unchangeable negative toe, but never put enough miles on those cars to worry about treadwear.
