you could put 225x45, 225x40 or 215x40 or 215x45. Many have had the wider 225's without pas and no issue. Personally I like 215x40 but that's too low for some but I find they handle superbly and allow you to drop the front for good rake without odd looking wheel arch gaps. Rears are 245x45 fitted std to later griffs but in the beginning they were 225's.

Thanks,does the 225/45 drop the front the same as the 215/40 or is the later the better option ?
