Default Tire Size?
On my recently purchased C2, the previous owner has 205s in the front and 245s in the back - is this the OEM tire size? It appears that most people are running 205 or 225s in front and 255 in back.

I believe OEM was 205 front and 225 rear but 225 & 255 is a common swap depending on your wheels.

I think you'll be happy with 225/255 for street driving on your 17s.
