Your first priority needs to be what tyre - something like Michelin Pilot Super sport will give you aggressive cornering, in the standard 225 size
yeah 235/40 is what I was thinking. and yeah the type of tire is clearly important too so I would be looking to do more of a high performance summer tire on it. but a 235 over a 225 gives you 10 more mm of tire width on each side which should help in cornering and look cooler as well!
