Tyre Size Question
Hi All,
Can't seem to find a previous thread in relation to this, so could I get some opinions on a potential tyre size change please?...
I have an MY05 WRX currently running 225/40/18s on Inovite Readlines with Prodrive springs. I'm after a more aggressive look and handling so I'm looking to fit some coilovers and want to bring the profile down to 225/35/18s; anyone else running this kind of set up?
Is it ok, or does it mess with the gearing?
Cheers,
Wells

Ok, had a look... they do some nice rims.
What about the suspension... stick with the Prodrive springs or move to coilovers too? Won't moving up to 245s scrub out if I come down anymore?

If don't want the 245's,you can stick with 225/40 R18,but these you may/must stretch tyres(here you can ask Maggs,which selling ROTA's for really good prices or other makers for good prices too,just contact him/PM him)
Something like this
About the coilovers,you can go with lowered springs too(H&R are good or Tein are good)..
