Stock is 205/50 x 225/45. Interestingly, the 205s are always measured on a 6.5 inch rim for their baseline so when I change to a 215/45 (a hair shorter), I get much better options.

I'm thinking Michelin PSS 215/45 and 225/45.

Thoughts?

Beyond the advantages of non-RTFs, I'm hoping for a little less understeer. (not expecting miracles)
You'll have less understeer if you go square.
