Souk,

Assuming the same diameter rim, with only the width of the tires changed, stock 205/225 would imply 47.6% of the rubber is up front. Changing 225/245 would retain this ratio at 47.8% rubber up front. But 205/245 would decrease the up front rubber ratio to 45.5%. Wouldn't that contribute negatively to the understeer of our cars with the lightness of the front end?
