Too bad I can't just order 6 wheels and test them out and send back the rears I don't want.

In you're not racing or anything, so it doesn't matter to certain point. Also keep in mind, wider tires will pull your steering wheel from cracks, dips or uneven pavement. Daily I run 18x8 +35 w 225/40 vs autox I run 17x9 +35 245/40 and steering get pulled so~~~~~ much from 245. I've decided never going put 245 on my daily setup.
if you like the dynamic response from the car, stay 17's w 225 vs if you're looking for the looks only & kill the steering response, go 235~255. I tried to go in the middle by running 18x8 w 225 for daily, but prob this summer I'll change em back to 17x8 w 225 for better response.
But here's the pic for food for thought on 18's... & yes, I do run coils (RS-R Sports-i)
