Stock

Front Diameter 24.8" .... revs per mile is 840
Rear Diameter 24.6" .... revs per mile is 847

Falken 615
front 215/45 is 24.7 diameter
front 225/45 is 25.0"
rear 255/40 is 25.0

Hankook RS2
front 215/45 diameter is 24.6"... 844 revs per mile
rear 245/40 is 24.7"......841 revs per mile.

To keep things near stock diameter the 215/45 and 245/40 RS-2 setup works better. The 225 and 255 FAlken don't get out of hand but there are other factors at work. Your wheels do not have an optimal offset and you've discussed a drop with me so you'll need tires on the smaller size. I think you'll rub a 225 in the front and 255 in the rear with a +45 and +48 offset. To keep a 215 and 245 from rubbing you may need some more camber and a fender roll with a drop.
