I'm ordering in a stagger set of Enkei RPF1. I want to know what's best tire size for my ride. I'm currently on lowering springs and my fenders are NOT rolled. I was looking to get 225/45/17 or either the 235/40/17.
The wheel specs are as follows: 17x8 +35 (Going to the rear) 17x8 +45 (Going to the front) -------------------- |

Larger tendency for understeer. Think T-Rex, liiiiiiiiiiiiiittle floppy arms in front and fat legs in the rear. Those can't turn either.
