Your fronts may rub but your rears will be fine. I just ordered some Toyo T1R's a few days ago. Lasts 18,000 miles, $135/tire (rears) and I got 245/40/17. Almost same grip as the stock elise tires (added width to make up for the lost grip). Saved money and should do better in the rain and last way longer. I think I'll be happy!
