I've got tien HE's with 17X7 215/45's +35 on the front of my S13. The tire is very close to the spring on the inside.

I really want to get a set of 225/45 Azenis but I'm afraid they will hit the spring. I know that the tread will be 5mm wider on both sides and there is room for that. It's the "ballooning" of the sidewall that makes it so close.

My current tires are Sumitomo HTRZII's

dont run a 225-45-17 on a 17x7...it's pinched IMO.

stick with your current size and find another suitable sticky tire.-Chet
