Are those 345/30/19, the Michelin PSS? Those look wide. What will you be running on the front with these?

I dont think they make the 285s in the invos unless they just started. I wish they did though and If I am wrong, please let me know.

You are correct, the front is only available for the 19".

Default At least you did not send your clutch out with a bang
This is played out, but thought it was worth a repost for those that might not have seen it.
