What tyres would suit a Type R with 17 inch Milleniums? Just bought a set of 225/45s and they're rubbing

What tyres are on there now merv? Some 225's are wider than others, when I took my old eagle f1's off and put them side by side with my RE070's the potenzas were clearly wider, they look more a 235, Steve S10WRC told me that when I picked them up and when I checked them side by side he was spot on.

Top man
