OK I got the CR tire size at the end in Dunlops Z1 Star Spec.

I figure if I went with 225 the steering feel will be less sharp.

Steering feel, schmeering feel. I guess it all depends on how you are going to use your car. I prefer to have the grip over the steering feel, so I run 255 all around.

Now since I have spend more time with this tire setup.

With this 215/225 size its really easy to drive, very steady yet nimble around twisties. Gives you a very slight hint of understeer, makes it really easy to manage on street and especially in rain. Which is perfect for me.
