How much of a difference do you feel between the PS2's and the Stock Run flats? (Those are most likely my next set of tires)
Rims look smokin by the way!!!

Yes, they are just a little wider, but no problems with my tires size.
225/40 in front
255/35 in rear.

With 235 ad 265, I think that the wheel can touch the body when you go fast on a bump.

France is a very nice country, come on for holidays

I have driven the car with the stock RSV just for 150 milles but the feeling difference is very small, my PS2 are Extra Load.
Maybe its for the reason....

Standars tires are sharply softer than the Extra Load.

Looks good, but i think if you had some lower profile tires, it'd be even better!

Right now it's .60 cents to 1 Euro; I was just in Germany and we used a conversion rate of $1.59 - meaning for 1 Euro it will cost $1.59. Not good, not good at all.
