        I was told by you that my only options were 215/40 and 205/45
        Ah, yeah. 215/45/16 is an option, 225/45/16 isn't. I didn't tell you 215/45 originally because there are so few tires made in the size. And now for your specific question, none of them are very good in the rain.

        So I now revert back to my original suggestions. 215/40/16 SPT/FK-452/T1-R/GS-D3/KDW2. All of them are great in the wet, and all around really.

          From the side profile, the tire and the lip of the rim are flush. I think thats a good thing.
          That's awesome news. Now to see how they fit under the fenders.

            They're great on wet surfaces, but very not great for hydroplaning resistance. So basically if you run them, don't dare exceed the speed limit in a downpour. This is basic logic anyways, really.

              Alright, looks like i'll go with the Falken's, pretty good price.

              Thanks everyone for your help!
