Would it be worth it to do a 225/35 instead of my current 225/40's

I'd rather see you go more narrow than having a shorter sidewall...that'll affect ride quality much more.

So 215/40/18 would feel better than a 225/35/18?

Less contact patch, slightly less traction but same sidewall height to bounce off potholes and uneven pavement so yes. There is a relationship where you could make up for less sidewall with more width BUT, I don't think that's at the 10mm mark.

Stretching tires is very unsafe, guys. Don't do it.

You know who's that is...


Okay, get some teal vinyl that matches your calipers. I admit, it's out of the box thinking but maybe it's nice?

Heard from the Gee household front window:
"please babe...you never let me go ANYWHERE! The fellas on the forum already noticed that all my pictures are from the front lawn! I swear, it was only that one time in HS and I never even called him back, I promise".
