I am getting some superleggera's and noticed the wheel is 8" wide. Are you running 225 or 235 widths? 225 seemed just right for my 7.5" Enkie wheels. 225 just seems too small for a 8" wide wheel to me. It could just be me though...... What are you guys running on?
Thanks!

I have 225 and they are just fine. I am lowered on H&R race/Bilstein sports.

I see on Bridgestone's website that 235/45/17 is recomended for a 8" wide wheel. Hmmmm, Looks like I have more pondering to do........

Oh fer crying out loud. I just saw the SCCA rules and STS class calls for a tire width no greater than 225. I wonder if I can get some 235's rebadged to 225
