Just received my set from the Tirerack, and about to mount them on my Work Emotion Forged.
What tire pressure do you guys recommend (I went with 215/255)?

i haven't auto-xed on mine but i've been driving pretty hard on the street with them and they grip well. i still wish i had gone with something with a stiffer sidewall. but then again... it's a good compromise between price and comfort i guess

I am debating between these and the Falken FK452

Going on 17x7 +45, 17x8 +45..

Either 215/45 & 245/40, or 225/45 & 245/40. These are going on an AP1 with basic suspension upgrades and UK spec alignment.

Which stagger would give the most neutral feel? Thanks!


(tread widths between the two tires for each size is identical)
7.6'', 8.1'', 8.8'' respectively.

Got them mounted on my new wheels this weekend (215/255). Now need to put some miles on them so they break in.
