Best tire sizes for latest SW388 set?
 
Hey guys, was thinking about getting the following set for the front and rear of my AP1, was wondering what the best combination of tire sizes on a stock suspension would be for a weekend spirited driver? I don't auto x or track the car, just occasional spirited driving on backroads and what not. Was going to run a staggered setup, not square. Thanks!

These are pretty conservative specs. I assume you're stock fender? I imagine the usual 225/255 would work fine. Front might be a slight stretch but I think that would be best for fender clearance reasons. You probably could run up to 235 in the front however total diameters don't match well to the back. 235/40/17 run short and 235/45/17 will be a little taller. I suppose it won't matter too much being on the front. Make sure to dial in moderate camber just to be safe. I would recommend a summer tire if you're intending for spirited driving, all seasons kill the car's handling. Just because it's not a track car doesn't mean you can't optimize it within reason.

Yeah, agree ^^^
225/45-17 f, 255/40-17 r

Spoon ran 235/245 for their customers on the CR93 wheel with similar specs to the new SW388.
