Default SPOON wheels and tire sizes

I have the Spoon SW388 and was wondering the correct/recomended tire sizes for these wheels.

Thanks Andrew

What is stock size? My car came with 17" rims. So run a 215 up front and 245 in the rears. Thats what I did, went with stock specs for MY04.
My front tires bulge past the fenders. I guess my next question is, what is stock size for pre04?

I run 205/55/16, 225/50/16 on my Works, which is the same offset as the Spoons.

Thanks guys for the input. Surely I will run 205/55/16 up front. As for the rears I will keep 245s and see how the car handles.

the consensus is that even when the stock s02's say 225, their effective width is 245. So the stock stagger (front is 205) is a 40mm difference.

sduece you should not worry about the tires and just sell them to me
