Question

Am considering the new Sti and want 18 inch wheels fitted.

Which way to go re tyres?

Prodrive recommend 225/40 P Zero Nero's but would be interested to know what other recommend based of their experience of doing same..

Had P Zeros on 17's on my current car but wasn't overly impressed so moved to F1 GSD3's, which tyres are best for 18's, make model and sizes please!

Question

Just got new WRX and have Prodrive 18" with 225/40 P Zero Nero's fitted and they are brilliant.
My first Subaru and it is very impressive.
Stokesley to Helmsley road just as good as on my bike.
As a newcomer to this site it would be nice if someone could tell me what tyre pressures to run with.
cheers.
