Tires on S..does anyone?
alright, im looking for kinda a cheap way out.. i want to get wheels for over stabilty to hopefuly put more rubber on the car.. Has anyone ever put a set of just rear Stock S wheels front and rear. im driving an AP1...and if someone has done this.. whats the largest tire i can fit on that wheel ...i was kinda hoping to do 245 in the back and keep stock 225 up front(of course on the rear wheels). could really use some help on the this...also i am new to the whole S sceen so best bang for the buck full coilover system help would be nice as well.
Thanks

Hub sizes are different. You can't run a rear wheel on the front, but you can run a front wheel on the back.
However, a 225 will fit on the oem front wheels. Many do that.

Yup, 225 front and 245 rear will fit just fine on AP1 wheels and should have plenty of space in both locations. Some autocrossers are even running 245 all around on the stock wheels, though this isnt needed on the street.
Just remember, putting the bigger tire on the front could result in some more oversteer.

I have a Kumho MX 225/50 on the front oem ap1 wheel, and it made the soft sidewall balloon out.
edit:
Wanted to add also, under hard turn in, I can feel the sidewall break down in the front. This might not be so bad if I take a rear wheel, machine the hub and mount it in front ( I already have 4 rear wheels, 2 are just sitting around )
