Cool, decided ill just get 225's. If any prob's when I eventually lower it, hopefully rolling the rear guards will solve it.

wider tyres does != better on a wrx dudes, id be going for the tyres which have the stiffest sidewalls instead which would be 215's not 225. Far more effect on performance and handling.
