nhello,i just changed to stock tires due to the winter in new england and i could not believe how unstable,soft with out any grip stock tires are. car flows like a cadillac now. i remember posting topic when i put TOYO T1R on to say that my car could not even spin them out off the line or doing a donut , i was thinking down on power or something?so last knight with stock tires i left nice black patch 40 or 50 feet long. so everything is fine with my car. i just realize what a difference make putting 9.1/2 wide rims on the rear with very, very good tires do.i just want to say for all of you that never did change rims or better tires. please do yourself a favor and change it a.s.a.p. you will love your car even more after.Firm, solid safe feel you will get going around any corner at any speeds and not letting off the gas. trust me feels good passing many sporty cars.anyway i am happy with toyo t1r. by the way they are fine on wet slush snow, but when its friezes forget it, i did experienced both conditions personally, that is why i went to stock ones for the winter. i just wish i never spent any $$$ on winter set that for the second winter still will sit in my garage. i got question finally now for you .why i had only one tire spinning like an old american cars? i would think we should have some kind of posi thing? please advice.thanks,caug.p.s. get yourself T1Rs. you will thank me all the time, i guarantee it.

Yes, that is my recommended tire size for our cars! Much more availability of brands and models.caug1 wrote:245 45 18 just one mm taller then stock & rim width will work too.no problem.
