            yeah... you might be able to get 235's to clear up front with the right offset wheel. in back, no way. i doubt it would help that much anyway. switch to a real summer tire in a 205...

                            does a bpt run any smoother hooked up recirc vs. blow off ? i think i might of asked this already but oh well ?

                              Recirculating it will make it VERY rich between shifts, so MPG's will go way down. It will also stumble and want to die when it falls down to idle. I used to recirculate mine until I got tired of restarting the car at stoplights. Ran like stock once it was recirculated.
