Err, I'm going to go ahead and disagree with you there. 225 is more than enough for spirited driving with this car as standard, modified to sticky rubber of course-- If you've turbocharged it and you're running highly aggressive brakes I still see no need to go over 245.
Let's not over-state what is "needed", shall we? Anything over 2 degrees of negative camber is for looks, not performance. So anything that requires anything like that for fitment is definitely an aggressive fitment, and it only takes 8" at +35 to run flush besides. If you want "stanced", say "stanced". If you're after a look, spit it out, we're not mind readers.
Nobody, and I repeat nobody, has enough power in one of these to warrant anything over 265s for grip. If you put 265s on one of these that's standard you are slowing it down badly-- rolling resistance goes up hugely with each 10mm of width-- Road and Track proved this when they slowed their car down putting an oversize width tyre on it. Suspension changes and minor brake upgrades won't require more than 10mm of extra tyre.
Be real, dude.
