JG996,

Very nice combination. I know the feeling though, I have a set of 19" style 128 with Michelin Pilot sport PS2 waiting at the dealer for me and my car.

I hope you don't have the sport package. According to tire rack the 20" RS GT wont fit with the sport package.

If I am wrong - Then I am going to copy you like no business...

PLEASE LET ME BE WRONG

Hey JG996 what size are the tires??? I have 20's on mine and they rub. I'm either going to have my fenders rolled or buy a different size tire. I have a 545 with the sport package.

I was told by tire rack that fender rolling "may" be required. I am betting that it is. I have located a place that specializes in fender rolling, so that will be one of the first places I take my 545. I have seen the 2004 Sport 5's with 20 " RS-GT. No rubbing reported by the owner. It may be the tire size?

Tire sizes on my setup:
Front 255 30YR - 20
Rear 295 25YR - 20
