I'd stick with stock sizes (either .1 or .2 RS) and then get an alignment that matches your goals.

I have to mount a rear tire larger than a 305 as you can't put a 305 on a 12.5" wheel. Hopefully I can install a 315 on the 12.5 and a 245 in front and have it behave as close to stock as possible. I don't really want to go to to a 325 out back but I know the fitment tire to wheel, is better.

So a 245 and a 315 would work for me if the tire isn't stretched out back.
Why not just stick with the stock wheels?

Thanks!
I do. Fits just fine. No issues at all. If I can find it, I can shoot you my Alignment specs too. My car is stock but I have a lowered ride height set up. Put these tires on (Michelin PS4) less than a year ago.
07 RS

I never tried a 325 before but I use a 245/315 and it fits fine. I do have about -3.7 camber though and I think the 315 has rubbed a bit in the past but it "self clearanced".

Cosmo, was this on stock wheels and if so, were you running the rear 5mm spacer?
