Default 235 or 245

My family just got back from the Philippines (Rota-land) and surprised me with a set of fresh wheels...They are 17x7.5 with 45et for all four...i test fitted it on the car and everything 'seems' fine for now but i was wondering what type of tires i should look into for the rear...i was thinking about 215/45/17 for the front or 205/45/17 and either 235/40/17 or 245/40/17 for the rear...

They're the Rota VXR and weigh 17lbs a piece.

I dont want to get rid of the wheels cus i think they look pretty nice and they were a nice present for me...

the wheels i got are hypersilver and match up pretty nice with the silverstone




I'm on the fence with them, but i figured it wont hurt to try...just getting bored of my stock wheels. Even comes with H center caps

Since you already own the wheels, your best setup is 205/50 and 235/45. Most S2000 owners are oblivious when they replace their stock rears with non-S02 225-45-16, and the majority don't crash as they leave the tire shop.
