Hi Brian
I have two sets of wheels both with Hankook Ventus Evo V12 tires. The 205,s are on the stock wheels and the 225's are on RPF1 7.5's. Which combo would you suggest for auto x? I ran the 205's and the did well with 33psi cold. I did notice the I need to bump up the camber a little bit more. I am concern the the 225's would have too much roll over and my sharp steering might suffer. I have spoke with some and they told me that the 5sp is better for auto x. If that is so the 225x45 would give me taller gearing If you suggest the 225's what cold presure would you start with.
I used to road race in the W.C. Honda challange and it was much easier when you had to run a spec tire!
Thanks in advance.
