Default 235/50/13?

i'm setting my car up for "sporty" driving on the street..and am going to run some lenso's up front...and was wondering if anyone thinks i'll have a problem with some 235/50/13's and clearence...or if i should step down to the 215/50's or setup up to the 245/50's...

anyone?

btw, they'll be the mt's

on the site, the 215 and the 235 are listed as 22" tires, where as the 245 is listed as a 23" tire. i'm trying to get them to tuck in as close to stock as i can...so i might be running them on normal wheels instead of lenso's...but i'm more concerened about clearence

What clearance are you concerned with? I'd go w/ the tallest/widest tire you can fit under your car (granted the power is there). High powered FWD's need all the traction we can get on the street. 225/50/15's have been good to me w/ no clearance issues but, I like my cars to look like 4x4's

well, that's what i'm asking here...if the 235 or 245 will present a problem in fitment.

i might have some 235's i coudl fit up, but they're over an hour away and my cars stripped down for paint...so, yeah..that's not doing much for me

i'm thinking 235 or 245, and like to run a 245 if it'll fit...
