Default Ordering new tires soon.

Hi guys.

I have an AP1 lowered on Espelirs and OEM shocks, sporting AP2V1 wheels. Currently I have a 215 tire in the front, and a 245 in the rear.

Getting a better set this year, going with Dunlop Direzza Star Specs. Along with the softer, grippy tire, I would like to go wider.

Any issues with rubbing going to a 225 in the front, and a 255 in the rear with my suspension set up? I have an alignment slightly more aggressive than the Euro spec...

Awesome! Thanks.

I have already looked up the speedo accuracy, and going to these tire sizes puts my speedometer back to nearly perfect...where as right now it's reading almost 3 mph faster than actual speed.
