Should I go 225's or 235's? And if ur reading this Jen, don't answer! :P Just wanna see what the other peeps opinions here are gonna be. Thanks for the info.

For proper speedo readings get the 225/45/17. The 235 is big fat tire. You would have to role your fenders I beleive and they are heavier as well. IMO

Ok, so the votes are 2-1 so far, 2 in favor of 225's. Hades voted for 235's and Jen and Grashper for 225s. Any other opinions???

I got 215/40zr17 and they barely fit without scrapin, but your offset has alot to do with it also!!!

I ran the calculation a long time ago and closest to stock diameter was 215/45R-17 which is what I run. 225/45R-17 would work also without really mesing up the speedo. Other sizes will have an adverse effect on the accuracy of your seepdometer.

"The fastest draw is when the sword never leaves the scabbard,
The strongest way to block, is never to provoke a blow,
And the cleanest cut is the one withheld."

225's it is then. Might also ask the Discount Tire Guru's what they think. So all this time, my speedo wasn't accurate? I've had these tires on for a month already coz that's what they came with. Anyways, this is good news then, since I could get the Nitto's then. O btw, another question, Nitto's or Kumho's?

What did I tell you?!?!? :P

You know my answer on the Nitto/Kumho question... :)
