Hey Guys, its time to replace my stock RE050 tires, and I am thinking about getting RE050 Pole Position, which is suppose to be the upgraded version. I've had S03 Pole Positions in the past and now the RE050, and i've been really happy with both.

The OE front size for RE050 is... 215/45-17
does anyone know if these will fit...225/45-17

basically the Pole Position for the fronts are a little bigger, and the rears are the same size.

Let me know what everyone thinks, or if there is something else I should be looking at.

 

I think you want 245's on the rear. What does the tirerack say to use?

 

245s is that the stock rear use. I've heard of people using 255 though..which is a little bigger. Just want to make sure I can step up the size a little bit and be fine.

Want to go from 215 to 225 in the fronts...
and from 245 to 255 in the rears...

 

Look at the difference in tread width of the front compared to the back. If this is to your liking (proper staggering for the kind of driving you do) get them. I have 225/45/17 and 255/40/17 Falken rt615's on my wheels. Sure they are a different tire and the sizing may be slightly different but they handle great on the track up to a point. It shouldn't be a problem for the ap2 wheel.
