Yup, the exact same as stock http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....050A&tab=Sizes

But less than half the price (on clearance), and a much better tire.

$20 ish more gets you the 235/35/19:

it'll make Team happy - if that counts for anything

I don't think 10mm of tire width is worth the shorter gearing but try it and see - report back, prove me wrong!

Looks like 2009 production fwiw that's on sale - if that sketches you out any...

PSS or Conti DW are your jack of all trades recommendation
These are cheap much more all out performance street tires but old production
Or spend some coin on the hot flavor of the month

I run RS3's on S1 18x8 wheels on my R3. Treadwear is 200 also so its good for 2015 C Stock "street" class rules.... Not that those tires will last that long anyways LOL!
