New 15x8 wheel coming!

If you are an M42 or M20, yeah, the gearing advantage could help you a bit around the cones and such. The last thing I want with an S52 and G260 is an even shorter first and second gear.

It's 225/45/15, that last thing I need is a gearing advantage.

Or more fender gap.

yeah but dont forget that a 225/50 is taller than a 205/50. a 225/45 should but about the same as a 205/50.

205/55 is stock diameter, not 205/50.

1" undersized + 4.10 in a M20 is still stupid short and nearing uselessness.

i dont really agree. im putting in a 4.10 because i find my 3.73 stupid long. im also gonna be upgrading my m20 so that it can rev a bit higher and make better use of the shorter gearing.

shorter gearing is mostly beneficial on cars with big turbos so you can load the turbo well. on NA, shorter is usually faster.

What tire and what springs?

Sumitomo HTR 200 with IE III springs and a wee little m42. They are a bit big for my taste but $450 for wheels and tires I'm not complaining. i'm thinking of going to a 205/50/15. if i do i'll sell these tires real cheap.

during auto-x or on the track, short gearing hurt more than helped me. any acceleration benefit was hardly noticeable but the limited mph in 2nd gear in AX or 3rd at the track was clear
