225/45-17 Will fit?
I want to get the Azenis for my OZ 17" F1s, Falken's site sais it will fit, however I'm wondering if I will have rubbing issues. Also, retailers online won't let me select these tires for my size of the weel. Something I should know? I'm clueless about it, and maybe would settle for 215s if they made them. Thanks!
look on mini2.
there is a guy with 225/45's, his car has h&r springs too.
i think the rubbing was minimal, nothing that a dremel can't fix!
what's the offset of your wheels? i'm sure that is the biggest factor!
then again, you might be better off with 215/40 or 215/45!

I spoke to RandyBMC about wheels.
Offset is key. if et is about 40 which is common then you might have trouble and get rubbing especially with wider tires like 215 or 225. If et is 45 to 50mm which is more like stock for the MCS then 215/45 or 215/40-17 is fine and even with the H-sport springs it is fine with no rubbing, even with 4 people in the car.
If et is less than 40 then you will very likely have trouble with rubbing when you want to lower the car with any spring set or if you want to put on larger or wider tires. Try to PM Alex at tirerack to confirm this.
