I'm ordering 4 Hankook RS-3's tomorrow but I don't know which size to order. I think I have AP2V3 wheels (Stock 2008). I want to go with the bigger size if they are not harder to mount. The price isn't much different. Can I go with the bigger sizes without any hassle? I also am getting Eibach Pro-Kit springs installed next week. Would their be any issues at all with rubbing with a wider tire or anything I should know beforehand?

I ran 225 / 255 and it felt great. Very nice overall balance and slightly improved weighting of the steering.

The CR does 215 / 255, if you want to stick to "stock" sizing. Either way, you shouldn't rub on anything.

I'm gonna order my tires now. 215/255.

I went with CR sizes also, 215/255, just placed my tirerack order on Wednesday. Different tire though.

Well actually the 225's are about $10 cheaper than the 215's. I read that 255's are fine for the rear but haven't read a confirmation on the 225's on the fronts.

I'm running 225/255 on my '08, no rubbing problems even w/ it lowered quite a bit.

Do you change your tire pressure with the wider tires?

Jim@tirerack

You can run either 215/45R17 or 225/45R17 on the front and you would run the OE tire pressure. If I can help with anything let me know.

I bought the car 5/1, and haven't checked the tire pressure yet. I even hit the track yesterday, and it was great as is, no adjustments needed.
