    Thanks for all the pic everyone. Much appreciated. Still undecided on which tyre size I should get to replace the stockers.

    I have to admit, 225's do look a little weird on a 7 inch rim if you look closely. I think the 215's suit the OEM rims more..

    I've got 225/45 and personally like the chunkier look. I can notice the difference visually. and they do save the rims from being scraped thats for sure

    I'll try and get some pics. also some tires will look fatter than others even with the same profiles and sizes. I've got Kumho KU36

    also isnt the stock mps rim 7.5inch wide?

    The gen 1 MPS 3 is 18x7. It's the gen 2's that are 18x7.5.

    If there is other photos you want, ask and I'll get them for you tomorrow

    The biggest difference between 215 & 225 is the price
