Tire selection for a spec wheels??
 
So while im getting my a specs repainted im trying to decide on what tire size to choose ....i read a couple of threads and mostly everybody recomends 245/40r 18 over the factory spec 235's.I'm also pushed for the 225 since im looking for a more flush look and not for that little stomach that the 245 would give.

If any one has the pics of these rims looking foward and side view of both the 225 and the 245 i would really apreciate it .

Also what would be the pro's and con's of having both tires????

Thanks...

I can't remember if the A-Spec wheels were 8.5" wide or not, but if they are 245 will be perfectly flush. I forget how wide the RDX Accessory wheels I have on the TL are, but I have 245 on those, and they are perfectly flush as well...

DO NOT put 225 on the wheels... My other car had 8" wide wheels, with 225 on them OEM, and they had the stretched look... Ugly as hell IMO.
