tire size... my tuner says this is the best...
235/50-18 He says that after some research that this is the tire size that i should get for my rs4 reps, tell me what you all think... I forget his reasoning, but maybe you all can figure it out! Also opinions, comments, questions ALWAYS welcome.
thanks so much

well, the circumference is almost 2% bigger...
which will throw your speedo and odo out of wack by that amount(2%). If that bothers you, 244/45-18 is an almost exact circumference match to the stocker 17"s, and the 245's would give you incrementally more rubber on the road which improves handling which is the whole reason to go plus one size isn't it?
Not that I have upsized, but if I did, I'd go with the 245's

My 255/45 18's are only 4% taller than the 225/55 17, but are more than 2 inches wider
Automan turns are fun! You have to be at least 35 to understand this reference to an obscure and short lived TV show.
