I've just changed the wheels on my Classic to 17's and I'm running 215/40's on there
that gives a -1.2% difference over the standard 205/50/16's so near as damn it the same
as for which tyres, that's a massive can of worms

nothing wrong with Falken's especially not the FK-452's
I rate Goodyear Eagle F1's very highly though, had GS-D2's & GS-D3's on various cars now and driven a friends 348bhp Nissan 200SX running the newer Assymetrics, no problems in the wet even with that much power going through the rear wheels!
