If you want to retain the Dynamic balance on this car you'll need to keep the same sizes on all 4 corners. 225/40/18 is a perfect fit in my opinion. If you just want something aggressive looking then that's a different discussion.
What width rims would best fit the 225 tire? Some of the 18" rims on offer seem to come in 18x8 or 18x8.5 (and nothing thinner). Would these be too wide for 225s? One autoblog review said that the front tires need to stay at 215...is that just false?
