I race on 225/50/15 Hoosiers on cookies.

A guy once showed up to a PCA autocross with 285s mounted on 7" Cookies. Looked absolutely ridiculous, and he couldn't understand how I could be so much faster with my "skinny" 225s.
Sidewalls must have been flexing all over the place. Suprised a tire shop would even mount them for him.

225/50 tires have pretty short sidewalls. Looks fine on lowered race suspension, but for a street car 225/55/15 would be more appropriate.
