I heard you can go with 235 with a 2in drop and still be good, and as far as the tire it will be better then the stock ones and wear a little less. Try discount tire direct.com better price's!!!

I thought 225/40 was the best size to go with?

how much of a difference is it gonna make from 225 to 235 hookin up when i launch it?

let me re-phrase that is it worth the extra $100 to go 235's. and does any1 know 4 sure that 235's won't rub when i drop the balt on sportlines?

Good choice let me know how they fit when you get the tire's and drop on im going to get the same as you but just diffrent tire's, if you take your time and look right you can get new tire's with warrenty for 500-650 in these size's 215/225/235 :-)

they will probably scrub in the rear when you go over a big bump or have people in the back seat. I had 235/40 Toyo T1Rs and Progress Springs and the rear pass. side scrubbed over big bumps
