would you go 235/40 or 245/40 on 18x8s?
I am asking specifically for the Falken Azenis RT-615s on SSR Comp-H 18x8 wheels, as the prices are comparable for either tire size (235s slightly cheaper). I will be getting these new tires for this upcoming autocross season (unless convinced to another tire), and will probably be doing a track day or two this year as well.
My understanding is that the tradeoff would be in responsiveness vs. contact patch; with more responsiveness in the 235s with less sidewall flex, and more contact patch with the 245s. For autocross application, which should be a priority? Would differences between the two sizes be too minuscule to notice?
EDIT: FWIW, these tires will also be my daily driven shoes.
