I hope someone could give me some advise. Thanks!

It's very common for people to upsize from the stock 215/245 sizes to 225/255. I'm currently running 225/255 Michelin PSS with no issues.
RE-71Rs are great tires, but unless you're driving to the track every other weekend, I'd simply get another set of Michelin PSS. The Bridgestone tires are excellent, but they sacrifice road comfort and tread life for a slight performance improvement, that isn't worth it to me. The biggest issue is that they wear significantly faster than the Michelin counterpart. Incredible grip though.
