I measured my Potenza tread depths and at 6500 miles I have only 1/32" of wear, so I decided to stop drooling over new tires for now.

Yeah, I'm going to keep my stock (8") rims. I had them chromed, and they look nice. I think 245's will be more than enough for this car. I would just like them to be stickier. I also want them to be about the same width front and back to keep the great balance that this car has. I don't want to have any understeer problems when the width gets too big in the back tires.

I just put 245/40s on my stock rims after 32,872 miles on the RE040s. What a difference! I don't think the REs were ever this quiet. Maybe it was the wear (I still had about 1/8" of useable tread) but the REs were deafening.
Only had a few opportunities to check out the grip. Seems I'm taking a certain 90 degree left near me at a brisker pace.
I'm glad I went with the Yokos and the wider tire.
