Tires! What is the best size?

[GTDi 0]

Hi, it´s my first post in this forum. I´m from Portugal and have a Corrado G60. Now one question:

In the front i have 205/45/16 in rear 215/40/16 what is the best for the corrado?

I like more the 215 because the 205 tyre is too streched.

What do you think?

Ive ran both, go with what you like better. On 215's the speedo will slightly over read and on 205's slightly under read. The 205's are less harsh and I preffered the way the 215's drove.

i thought the speedo was only over reading when the diameter of the wheel and tire exceeded the standard wheels?, thing you'll have less trouble with tire rubbing with 205's, dont think itll make any difference to your driving unless you go for different profiles (the lower the profile the harsher the ride).

With the 205's it is a slightly larger diameter than standard and the 215's give a slightly smaller diameter, though, tbh, the difference is negligable.

I never had any rubbing problems with either. (On standard suspension).
