Yesterday we made a fitting trial on the TS.
225/45R17 ET30.
Rear: prefect fit.
Front: almost OK. Tragicomically the TS plastics make the fitment worse.
The car was not lowered and looked like shit with these. We'll make it work out nice during the summer.

What I have learnt is that if you go wider than 235 on the rear and you have 300hp you are going to break something down the drivetrain. Been there done it many times. You must get some wheel spin to take the stresses off , if you are using the standard gearbox set up.
