BLUE_TII and MaczPayne have both been running 255's, on 17x8.5 and 17x9 respectively, under stock front fenders for a while (over 2 yrs). not pulled, just folded the inner lip flat. as far as i know, both guys track their cars as well.

brian- i wouldnt bother with the toe links. MMR's spherical control arm bearings retain the OEM toe adjuster so there's really no need.
i also prefer MMR's individual camber adjusters as it incorporates a rod end. AWR/Mazdatric links have metal sleeves on both ends, and the control arm movement isnt completely uniaxial.

anything between 1-1.5* rear camber is fine for a street car. 1 is probably ideal. i run 1.5* with 315 v710s and get even tire temps.
