Default tire size for a TT

I presently have 225/45 ZR17 on the car. Would like a wider tire. Can anyone tell me if 255/40 ZR17 are a problem to fit or can it cause steering/vibrational problems.
Thank you

that's fine for the rear; too wide for the front. you will need different wheels though

Thanks for the info. Different wheels because the originals are not wide enough, correct? If you have done this, what do you know works.


Thank again
