Guys,
I have a Dilemma here. you views pls.
IS200 SE 03. tyres are: front 215 40 17, rear 225 45 17. he he he... don't laugh....
new tyres all around. I thought this setup will give me better handling when I got them. However, it looks bit odd..........
I can live with the rear ones, but front ones I like to change them to Falken 452 215 45 17 or 225 45 17 and also want to referb the wheels, cost isn't a lot. on the other hand, I am thinking should I just use them till next change due, then referb them and pay Tony a visit as well? maybe 20K later he he he...
1, should I change them now and resell the almost new tyres to recover some cost?
2, if I do should I get the 215 or 225 for the front?
3, should I referb all of them together or just the front ones?
Dilemma Dilemma Dilemma....

Sell the fronts & put 214/45 R17 on. Keep the rear as is. That will be a sweet set up.
Post some pics once you've done it. I'd like to see what 225/45 looks like on the rear 7" rims. Could be a cheap upgrade for me.

thanks E910
no one else has any views on this, must be a boring topic.
I am not going to ask anymore.
